description | The purpose of this study is to outline the sources and aspects of the time-
surpassing topicality of the Pope’s vision of integral education apparent in his
anthropological, permeated with faith, re
fl
ection on man. In his vision, the internal
perception conditions the integral education of man. The research con
fi
rms the
thesis that the Pope’s pedagogy assumes an “adequate anthropology” and opens
the human heart to the objective order of truth, including truth about Christ as
“the centre of the universe and of history” (
Redemptor hominis
, 1) and to the
fundamental truth about man. The Pope’s pedagogy with its anthropological
grounding is topical due to the fact that it offers, contemporary times permitting,
a complete vision of human education. This vision goes against the culture of
lost faith, dehumanisation, nihilism, and existential cynicism, and also against
axiological relativism. In this vision, science, technology, art, peace, justice,
God, true religion, nature, grace, faith, hope and love are not in complementary
distribution, but complement each other. The timeless source of the topical quality
of the Pope’s pedagogical message appears to reside in the compatibility and
completeness of the human image it provides. It investigates the complex matter
of education and the individual story of shaping personalities of outstanding
individuals. With due respect and unanticipated amazement, it also provides an
outline of the Catholic interpretation of education and the human condition. |
