„Parcours de la reconnaissance.” 120 Days of „Culture” by Wojciech Karpiński in the Context of Paul Ricoeur’s Dialectic of the Subject

Summary/Abstract: The article analyses Wojciech Karpiński’s latest book titled 120 dni „Kultury” in the context of Paul Ricoeur’s philosophy of man. Karpiński chose texts published in “Kultura”, a Parisian literary magazine, from writers who inspired him the most, taught him how to look at the world and at other people, and above all showed him how to discover the beauty of art. Karpiński’s ‘I’ was shaped by his encounter with other artists. Narrative identity is a bridge leading to the concept of open dialectics proposed by the French philosopher, which combines two methods. One involves the researcher adopting an a posteriori approach, starting from the concrete, i.e. the individual subject located in specific realities of life, immersed in a specific culture, having their own history and experiences. For the other, the researcher uses a Kantian turn, reflecting on the subject in a transcendental perspective. Subjectivity means turning towards the Other, and thanks to the Other, one transcends oneself. As Ricoeur argues, there is an “ontological force” in language that points to a certain way of being-inthe- world. Identity is consciously transformed, and literature is simultaneously an artistic record of this movement and a cultural-anthropological discourse.
