A systematic vision of history - an analysis of the changes of the Man's Model in the light of the 18th century Polish parenetic literature

In the paper a research project in the field of culture history is presented, along with indispensable tools for explaining dynamics of history processes. The subject of the research project is the man's model in the light of selected 18th-century Polish parenetic literature. For the explanation of change dynamics in this model such theories have been considered as: "self-organization" of Ilia Prigogine, the "bubbles model" of A. Nowak J. Szamrej and M. Lewenstein; the theory of "originating societies" of P. Sztompka. These theories can be used for a clarification of the change of different elements and also the emergence of new elements in the model. An example is presented concerning the change in the Man's model in the 17th and 18th centuries.
