Filozofia i współczesne poszukiwania orientacji

The crisis of culture is connected with the loss of orientation. It is a phenomenon that is easily discerned in the contemporary culture. For example in science there is a pursuit for innovations rather than for the truth; in religion one increasingly focuses on the rites rather than on the faith and sacredness; in art it is a craft and commercialisation rather than the beauty and creation that takes a lead. The present paper deals with the problems connected with the decline of orientation in the contemporary culture and with the philosophical attempts to redeem it.The crisis of culture is connected with the loss of orientation.
