In the present research paper I focus on the issues concerned with the perspective adopted by Rev. Józef Tischner in his review of Leszek Kołakowski’s life and philosophical work. I demonstrate – which is the main purpose of the paper – that this perspective is determined by the Tischnerian discovery of the so-called “basic conviction” in Kołakowski’s writings. Such a conviction was of crucial significance for his philosophical apologetics of Marxism as well as his radical criticism of the Church, and communism founded on Marxism. As Józef Tischner poses the question about the “basic conviction,” he proves that in Kołakowski’s philosophy from the beginning it centres around ethical issues, and in particular the idea of human rights. It is in these that Tischner discerns the central theme in Leszek Kołakowski’s philosophy. In this way Tischner paints a picture of Kołakowski as a philosopher of actually one thought which matures in his work at various levels, but above all at the level of understanding of man, religion and the Church.

W niniejszym opracowaniu koncentruję się na problematyce perspektywy, z jakiej ks. Józef Tischner patrzy na dzieło filozoficzne i życie Leszka Kołakowskiego. Wykazuję, i to jest główny cel artykułu, że ta perspektywa wyznaczona jest przez Tischnerowskie odkrycie tzw. „przeświadczenia podstawowego” w pismach Kołakowskiego. Takie przeświadczenie miało decydujące znaczenie zarówno dla jego filozoficznej apologetyki marksizmu, jak również dla jego radykalnej krytyki Kościoła i ufundowanego na marksizmie komunizmu. Stawiając pytanie o „przeświadczenie podstawowe”, Józef Tischner uzasadnia, że w filozofii Kołakowskiego od początku ogniskuje się ono wokół problematyki etycznej, w szczególności w wokół idei praw człowieka. To w niej Tischner dostrzega kluczowy wątek filozofii Leszka Kołakowskiego. W ten sposób Tischner kreśli obraz Kołakowskiego jako filozofa właściwie jednej myśli, która dojrzewa w jego twórczości na różnych poziomach, przede wszystkim zaś na poziomie rozumienia człowieka, religii i Kościoła.

The chief motivation for undertaking this research comes from my encounter with Charles Taylor’s excellent work, “A Secular Age,” in which he not only analyzes the various historical manifestations of secularization in Western civilization, but also—and above all—tries to identify the newly emerging conditions in which forms of religious belief may develop on the threshold of the new millennium, in the context of what he himself describes as a secular age. My paper chiefly focuses on the fact that the routes leading to, and attempts to bring about, a revival of Christian spirituality in the modern world, which Taylor describes in his book, were already a concern for many philosophers working at the start of the 20th century. One amongst these, the Austrian thinker Ferdinand Ebner, occupies a special position. Known to the philosophical world as one of the originators of dialogical thinking, Ebner uncovers the real key to the revitalization and consolidation of Christian spirituality in the form of the reality of the spoken word. First and foremost, his philosophy of the word constitutes a spectacular example of the intensive search for meaning in life: something not always easy for human beings in a secular age to discover and define for themselves. In this paper I also aim to present the basis for Ebner’s assertion of an inseparable link between the word and religious faith, and to show how this relationship founds a possibility for the renewal of Christian spirituality in the modern world.
