%0 Journal Article %T Die Grundlagen der Normativit t bei Kant und Spener %A Anna SZYRWI£¿SKA %J Argument : Biannual Philosophical Journal %D 2011 %I Pedagogical University of Cracow %X In one of the chapters in Conflict of Faculties, Kant presents so-called ¡°Spener¡¯s problem¡±. Kant refers to the conception of the 17th century theologian Philipp Jakob Spener, concerning the problem of radical moral transformation of individuals. Spener became famous as one of the founders and main exponents of pietistic theology, which in the 18th century became one of the most significant intellectual trends at the University of K nigsberg and about which one may assume, that it could influence the evolution of Kantian philosophy. The goal of the article is to compare the main assumptions of Spener¡¯s theology with Kantian theory of moral motivation. The analysis focuses on the possibility of describing the phenomenon of normativity in both conceptions. %K externalism %K internalism %K Kant %K normativity %K pietism %K Spener %U http://argumentwp.vipserv.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/pdf/05_argument-2-03-szyrwinska.pdf
