In The Problem of the Idea of Culture in John Paul II: Exposing the
Disruptive Agency of the Philosophy of Karol Wojtyla, John Corrigan
provides a new lens with which to view and understand the philosophy
of Karol Wojtyla/John Paul II. He exposes Wojtyla as a major player in
contemporary philosophical debates. The work reformulates the
“problem of experience” in light of the questions surrounding our
idea of culture. Corrigan argues that for Wojtyla the drama of the
“problem of experience” manifests in the apparently divergent
accounts of the meaning of human experience as presented by the
philosophies of being and of consciousness. Solving this conundrum
results in an idea of the person capable of explaining human
experience in relation to human culture,unfolding the experiences of
self-knowledge, conscience, and the ontic-causal relationship of the
person to human culture. The first part of the book concerns formal
considerations regarding the constitutive aspects of Wojtyla’s
approach, while the second part deals with pragmatic considerations
drawn from his comments on culture.
