5.0 out of 5 stars Great examination of Wojtyla's Thought, April 23, 2005

Juan Olvera (Orlando, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Destined for Liberty: The Human Person in the Philosophy of Karol Wojtya/John Paul II (Paperback)
Kupczak's book Destined for Liberty is an excellent book to know more behind Wojtyla's thought. The book starts with an introduction from Michael Novak which ends with a Polish prayer to JPII: " May he live a hundred years".

The book analyzes Wojtyla's thought by first examining his early writings and methodology. In the latter sections he talks about his habilitation thesis and his Lublin Lectrues. In the methodology section he explains his mix of phenomenology with Thomistic thought and does an excellent section that highlights some of the critiques of Wojtyla at the time Wojtyla published and explained his work, The Acting Person.

After Kupczak examines Wojtyla's writings and method he concentrates on Wojtyla's thought on consciousness and efficacy as well as transcedence and intergration. The latter crucial to understanding Wojtyla's thought.

Great book! Read it.
