TI - Cornerstones of Education in the Humanities
AB - The article is devoted to the basics of humanities education (especially Polish studies) in contemporary cultural conditions. The author, recalling the findings of Martha Nussbaum and Chantal Delsol, shows how important it is to rethink the purpose and value of such education, and demonstrates the different ways in which it can be approached. It is also argued that the current way of thinking about humanities education demonstrated by political decision-makers in Poland is closer to the post-totalitarian perception of reality, thoroughly presented in Vaclav Havel’s essays, than to the proposals formulated by the aforementioned intellectuals.
