Hermeneutyczna antropologia Wilhelma Diltheya

The aim of the above text is presentation and a critical analysis of the vision of human being contained in Dilthey’s hermeneutical philosophy of life. It is well-known that Dilthey based his early epistemology of the humanities on so-called descriptive psychology that anticipated the phenomenology of Husserl. I try to show that this concept is explicitly connected with an anthropology that tries to dicover – on a basis of historical research of human culture – the universal categories describing the essence of human being as such.
