Refleksje nad kryzysami własnej tożsamości
Abstract
It seems justified to affirm that man cannot know himself
completely. This truth has a great influence on considering and
comprehending his identity. Although people used to think that
identity is based on the intellectual perception of one’s own personality,
an equally essential factor appears the element of volition.
It has to be emphasised that man constitutes the highest
value for himself and for other people, for whom he should be
responsible. In this sphere, human identity crises arise. Talking
about crises, then, one should look for the causes in the mistaken

hierarchy of values and, finally, in the question: who am I? The
crises, however, do not have to be entirely negative and that is
why the author presumes the necessity of empirical investigation
into their origins.
