Nicolaia Hartmanna koncepcja ducha zobiektywizowanego i jej główna trudność

In this paper the main difficulty concerning Hartmann’s theory of the objectivated spirit is analyzed. Firstly, I reconstruct the main theses of Hart- mann’s stratalism. Secondly, I demonstrate three main forms of the spiritual being: a personal spirit, an objective spirit and an objectivated spirit. Thirdly, I analyze the main difficulty of this theory: understanding the objectivated spi- rit as being composed of two layers. Important is also the lack of distinction between objectivated spirit and objectivation. Fourthly, I present some interpretations proposed by other scholars interested in Hartmann’s philosophy.
