(Original title: The Sanctification of the Everyday)
Filozofia, 78 (2023), 7, 511 - 532.Abstract
The article traces the evolution and crystallization of Buber’s philosophy of dialogue. It focuses on his consideration of the epistemological and ontological issues attendant to the principium individuationis, the subject of his doctoral dissertation of 1904. Culminating with the publication of Ich und Du in 1923, this process was punctuated by life experiences that… Read more

(Original title: A Strange Homology: Buber’s and Jünger’s Descriptions of the Fighting Individual)
Filozofia, 78 (2023), 7, 533 - 547.Abstract
A complex approach to Martin Buber’s oeuvre requires a consideration of both his dialogical and pre-dialogical writings. The latter include in some cases emphases that differ substantially from the emphases promulgated in Ich und Du. I will focus on three essays from the final stage of Buber’s pre-dialogical period which contain reflections on the fighting individual… Read more

(Original title: Buber on Responsibility)
Filozofia, 78 (2023), 7, 548 - 563.Abstract
The paper deals with Martin Buber’s claim that responsibility “is the basic theme of my work in general.” As I show in the opening section of the article, his statement applies to the dialogical period of his work, but not the pre-dialogical. In the mystical phase of Buber’s thought there is no place for responsibility because the very nature of mysticism excludes… Read more

(Original title: Jedaji ha-Pnini: Mixis jako nezbytná podmínka pro přijetí formy a teorie emergence)
Filozofia, 78 (2023), 7, 587 - 599.Abstract
This study presents an early phase of Jewish Averroism by means of an example of one of its representatives from the 14th century, Yeda’ya Bedersi ha-Penini. On the basis of his commentary on Aristotle’s Physics, which is available only as an unedited Hebrew manuscript, Yeda’ya is shown to be a proponent of weak emergentism in the modern sense of the word. This is… Read more

(Original title: Hierarchy in Society, and What About Nature?)
Filozofia, 78 (2023), 7, 578 - 586.Abstract
The paper examines the book Martin Buber’s Theopolitics and analyzes the conflict between the hierarchy in nature and in human society. Buber qualifies our relations to nature and to other non-living objects as darker than human relations. This creates an imbalance between the human You and the other type of You. This reflection allows us to think about the meaning… Read more
