  • Abstrakt: In Józef Tischner’s philosophy, culture is understood as reflecting the human spirit and, thus, expressing human identity. A human being is not so much born into a specific culture, as through experience, becomes its participant. Tischner combines culture with the notions of patriotism and art. Patriotism involves dialogue with other cultures, which broadens the horizons of each culture in its self-understanding. In turn, art is closely related to the ethical nature of a human being. By implementing specific values, a human being is the creator of culture when he/she experiences the presence of another human subject on the horizon. The category describing this experience is the interpersonal relationship understood as an interpersonal encounter, or the event of being ‘face to face’, in which, through a mutual exchange of the ‘space of contact’, we learn about our similarities and ‘otherness’. The event of the encounter is of a dramatic nature because it creates an obligation in one person towards another. The critical issue here is the inadequacy of the description of the experience in relation to the experience itself. The way to solve this problem is to discover the dialogical nature of interpersonal relationships. In these relationships, ‘the fullest realization of reciprocity’ is love. This article aims to demonstrate that Józef Tischner’s understanding of the culture of interpersonal relationships can be used in research on culture, mainly within the area of intercultural dialogue, as well as in research on the axiological foundations of culture.
