Russia and Europe. Lev Shestov – Athens and Jerusalem - paradoxical and aphoristic way of thinking. Critique of science and scientific reason. Defence of a man. Socrates as inspiration for searching for one’s self. Philosophy in exploration of mysteries and eternal themes for thinking – life, love and hope. Words and deeds. Temporality and eternity. Truth versus lie (falsehood and lie of the so-called “owners of truth”). Power of weakness and weakness of philosophy in confrontation with a commanding brute. What truths does a man need? Forcing truth. Kant and Plato versus everyday life, or constructions fixed in presumptions. Shakespeare - Hamlet or eternal mystery called man. Philosophy of history - great and small Hegels as unlawful candidates for prophetic throne. Spiritual exercises or Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky and Nietzsche as educators of fellows. The power of keys - Socrates, Luther and Erasmus, or eternal strife for man and God.
The aim of the subject is the search for links and connections between Russian thinkers and Western philosophy. Students will gain an understanding of the main problems of Western philosophy through their thinking through Russian philosophy. The history of philosophy and literature in the 19th century - Russia in the context of Western philosophy - opens an approach to human problems. The study of Lev Šestov's texts will make it possible to understand the meaning of his paradoxical and aphoristic way of thinking. The novelty of this way of philosophical thinking for Russia at the time, where the thoughts and works of the poet and philosopher F. Nietzsche had a strong influence. It is proven that Russian writers and researchers had a strong influence on F. Nietzsche's thinking - Leo Tolstoy but also, and to a much greater extent, F. M. Dostoyevsky. Lev Šestov was the first to uncover these facts in his groundbreaking works. Šestov's criticism of science and scientific reason is revealed through the study of the original texts of Russian philosophers, which allows the student to gain a better understanding of the relationship of the Western philosophical tradition in comparison with Russian philosophy and literature. When preparing the seminar paper at the end of the semester, he will be able to focus on one of the topics that can be named as the Russian idea, or Europe and Russia in the texts and contexts of the history of philosophy.

The aim is to make students familiar with life and work of thinker Hannah Arendt who significantly influenced the Western thinking of the 20th century. Arendt as a talented pupil of K. Jaspers influenced such thinkers as M. Heidegger and Ján Patočka. The study will be focused on the texts written by Arendt, in which she examines ontological and anthropological preconditions of the common world of human life, the world characterized by the fact that it is ruled by reason, but it is also very important that living human beings live in it. The issue of man is crucial topic for Arendt, because thinking about the current state of human affairs seems to be a serious problem of Western thinking - spiritual and political crisis of European mankind. What are the possibilities of rethinking elementary prerequisites of political life? What makes the basis of political reality? The Gap between Past and Future. Vita activa and condition humaine. What is Authority? What is Freedom? Greek polis and household. Polis and paideia. The Crisis of Education. The Crisis of Culture.
