The classical culture in the modern World
The classical culture in the modern World

Summary/Abstract: The author discusses the impact of classical antiquity on the modern culture, particularly in Poland. He tried to point out that ill-considered and harmful educational reforms have reduced or even eliminated the classical education from the school system in Poland, as in several other countries. Now we are witnessing the decline and collapse of classical humanism. But on the other hand it is difficult to imagine that the viivifying stream of ancient culture woluld dry up finally in our times. We believe that our world of western civilization does not want and cannot renounce the values that have created and shaped the ancients.
