| Summary: | Karol Wojtyla, more commonly known as Pope John Paul 11, is a very famous spiritual leader. It tries to come up with a study concerning Wojtyla outside the realm of Catholicism and Theology. It offers a different way of looking and studying Wojtyla, by concentrating on his moral philosophy. Wojtyla has devoted a lot time on writing and discussing about moral philosophy. His concentration and main interest would have to be the matters that concern the human person. It is through the analysis of the person and his actions that he was able to tackle the major issues in contemporary ethics. Wojtyla's ethics can be analyzed by looking at his major works ranging form the time that he was still a common priest up to his writings as the supreme pontiff. But this is not merely an exposition of Wojtyla's ethics, but rather a comprehensive investigation of his moral philosophy. It is an invitation, to analyze Wojtyla's ethics with reference to our concrete lived experience. And so phenomenology plays an important role in the whole course of investigation. This paper does not simply assert phenomenology to Wojtyla's moral philosophy it also tries to justify Wojtyla's application of phenomenology to ethics. |
