Summary/Abstract: The author, drawing on the poem “Thinking about the Fatherland…” by Karol Wojtyła, reflects on the significance of fatherland and freedom, and on the position of the human being in the world. Interpreting the poem through the prism of both Wojtyła’s philosophical concepts and John Paul II’s teaching, the author emphasizes the complementarity of the philosophical and poetic perspectives.
