| description | The speech given by St. Pope John Paul II at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris
on June 2, 1980 has a special place among his numerous addresses concerning culture.
Referring to the cultural changes which took place in the last three centuries the pope
stood up for culture, emphasising that, in an individual dimension, culture represents
the constitutive element of life of every man and, correspondingly, in a social dimension, it provides a support for self-determination and for the freedom of nations. Formulating such a message, the pope referred to Polish experiences, in order to highlight
the significance and the primacy of the person and to point out the subjective meaning
of a nation and the ethical dimension of culture. In the papal message one can also find
a call for cultural opposition against contemporary subjectivism and other tendencies
heading towards the disinheritance of man and to the shutting of the door of the universal horizon of hope and love, which is based on manifold human experiences from
the past. |
