These philosophers differed in their more definite interests, methodological approaches, and main results and yet their investigations share a number of characteristic features. Questions of value, considered as extremely vital, are treated with care and precision. In spite of the richness of their insights and an impressive number of detailed results these philosophers refrain from hasty conclusions, trying here, as elsewhere, to conduct their studies in an intellectually and morally responsible way.Studien zur Österreichischen Philosophie47.ValuesPhilosophersPolandInfluencePhilosophy, Polish20th centuryValues.PhilosophersInfluence.Philosophy, Polish199.438Porebski Czeslaw1546317NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910793496603321Lectures on Polish value theory3801838UNINA
