| Summary: | <p>The paper evaluates the specific character of Christian pedagogy. In order to do that, the author firstly characterizes example trends and direction in pedagogy; secular, radical-emancipation, technological-functional, Waldorf education, humanistic education and antipedagogy. The profile of Christian educational philosophy is revealed on its background. The author characterizes it, starting off with anthropological fundaments, created by Thomas Aquinas and Augustine of Hippo, as well as those which find its full development in personalistic philosophy. Presenting the anthropological personalistic philosophy, the author indicates key consequences brought by it in the field of pedagogy. Own considerations are supplemented by reference to documents of Church. The last part of the article tries to present how Christian upbringing operates in the society of choice developed on the turn of the century.</p> |
