Overview

Challenging recent relativisms, ""deconstructivisms"" and scepticism toward rationality, reason and logos, this collection tends towards a vision in which, according to Tymieniecka's introduction, the works of the Logos manifest themselves in the edifice of life: through forays in several perspectives emphasizing culture. Rationality and consciousness, personality, the moral significance of life, valuation and values prepare for the last section: rationalities in the societal and cultural life. Mainly by scholars from the Baltic States gathered at the First International/Baltic Phenomenology Congress in Riga (Latvia) held by The World Phenomenology Institute with the Latvian Academy of Science, in September, 1990, this collection shows phenomenology's world-wide spread and universal validity.
