Summary/Abstract: In my study, I examine the relationship between worldview and wonder. I define worldview in a phenomenological sense: by this I mean the way in which the world is reflected as a view in consciousness. I explore the question of the degree of wonder with which we should relate to the fact that the world is reflected as a worldview in our own personal consciousness. I argue that this sense of wonder can never be exaggerated, and that we relate correctly to the reflection of the world – our worldview – in consciousness if we extend this sense of wonder towards the boundless. Thus, in this wonder, within the actual worldview, a certain apprehension of the infinite is realised.
