Asmenybės ugdymo idėjos antikos filosofijoje
LTStraipsnyje parodoma, kaip antikos filosofija nuo Sokrato ir Platono iki Senekos laikų formavo ir ugdė naujo tipo žmogų - mąstytoją, filosofą. Atskleidžiama, kokiu būdu, kokiomis priemonėmis antikos filosofija senovės graikų orgiastinę dvasinę kultūrą transformavo į medatatyvinę - intelektualine dorovine refleksija grindžiamą. Išplėtojama pagrindinė šio straipsnio tezė - kad antikos filosofija tapo intelektualiniu krikščionybės pagrindu.

ENThe idea of personal fostering is regarded in this article as one of the main problems of the antique philosophy. The rise and development of the antique philosophy were determined by two circumstances: the traditional mythological thinking and the fonnation of the new system of values. Both had to be recreated and transformed by the antique philosophers. The article analyses this process showing how, e. g. the heroes of the Homeric poems - the ancient Greeks and Romans - originally absolutely dependent upon the will and whims of gods, had been transformed (thanks to the intellectual activity of their philosophers) into self-dependent personalities with understanding of the concepts offree will and freedom of will, i. e. into citizens of their states and members of society, characterized by complex moral and spiritual orientations. The author comes forth with a conclusion that the antique philosophy has laid the intellectual and moral basis for the future Christianity, thus contributing in the large scale to the formation of the rich spiritual world of the modem personality.
