Ethos without ethics - A dialogue between revolutionary and a moralist

Summary/Abstract: The author discusses ethos — the summary of features mankind possessed, utilized, overcame or established in various ways. The study is written in a form of a dialogue, in which Diego and Sophie are taking part. Outlining points of contact of two opposite views, the author stresses strong and weak points of human behaviour in various periods. His collocutors come closer, coincide or differ. They discuss Christianity, its moral, meaning and absurdity of wars, killings and forgivness, philosophers who dealt with problem of ethics, Marxism, fundamental principles of communist moral and class interest of proletariat. The opposition between a revolutionary and a moralist is in that Diego reduced basic principle of communism to the interest of the proletariat, whereas his collocutor comprehends this basic principle as a value axiom which cannot be expressed in any other category.
