Dydaktyki filozofii kłopoty z prawdą [The teaching of philosophy and its troubles with truth]

Abstract

I. We can talk about the crisis of the truth (in the meaning of the classical cor- respondence theory) in the contemporary philosophy (of the 20th century). II. In the wake of philosophy the teaching of philosophy reconciled with the destruction of the truth. Then the didactics of philosophy resigned from the placing the aim to the truth among the objectives, which should serve to philosophical education. III. The absence and understatement of the disinterested pursuit to the truth among the objectives or requirements of education impoverish the philosophical education and cause damage to the children, pupils and wards. IV. Therefore the truth understood as an epistemological category, the purpose of education and moral value, should be restored to our didactic and educational activities.
