Wartość hedoniczna – problemy aksjologiczne i ontologiczne

This paper examines some of the difficulties and problems connected with hedonistic values. According to Hildebrand, pleasure is not a value at all. According to Scheler, Hartmann and Ingarden, it is a value but its axiological position is low. I consider two general issues. First, I analyze the relation between hedonistic values and other kinds of values. Secondly, I examine the ontological specificity of hedonistic values. I attempt to prove that hedonistic values have a true axiological character. I also show that pleasure is an element of every value-perception.
