Produktbeschreibung

Freedom is the key issue for both Karol Wojtyla and Immanuel Kant that connects the Polish with the German philosopher.

The categorical imperative obliges each person to act morally and thus elevates them. It is the foundation of human dignity, not only for Kant but also for Wojtyla. Who is man? Is man free?
