Abstrakt: | Prosopopoeia is a rhetorical tool which allows giving voice to a supporter, opponent, inanimate
object or the dead. Prosopopoeia therefore, had an ethical dimension and could be understood as
a strategy of being, a strategy which expresses itself in rhetorical tool. Incarnation could be taken as
a radical and unprecedented prosopopoeia which otherness is respected in duality of natures, thanks to
which distance between those natures does not fade away. The difficulty of accepting prosopopoeic
strategy is its kenosic part. But still reflection on theological and humanistic premises for understanding
humanistic sciences as a prosopopoeia, seems to have a chance for becoming distinct voice, calling for
such a way of being and conducting scientific research in which political and philosophical aspirations
will be replaced with real sympathy – compassion with the Other and humility to her otherness. |
