Wątki filozoficzne w dramatach Karola Wojtyły

The aim of this paper is to identify, in the plays written by Karol Wojtyła, those scenes, problems and themes which are also present, albeit in a different form, in his scholarly output. To achieve this aim, a method of analysis and comparison was adopted: the author looked for common motifs present in Wojtyła’s dramas and in his philosophical works, while keeping in mind the differences between these two areas of intellectual activity, and especially their specific language. The result of this research is the discovery of the following themes and problems addressed by Wojtyła, both as a playwright and as a philosopher: human development, maturity, and one’s fulfilment as a person, i.e. as a rational and free being open to interpersonal relationships and capable of creating a community; love in its different manifestations, particularly spousal love; and the human being as the general cognitive focus of reflection based on broadly understood experiences
