Abstract
The aim of this article is to mark, in an unassuming way, the
50* anniversary of death of French philosopher Emmanuel Mounier
(1905-1950). In his relatively short working period, he was one of the
most important philosophers of the French and European catholic
world. Describing the philosopher's career, the author points out the
significance of the magazine "Esprit", which is to be considered
Mounier's life-work. Haveing presented the reasons for the
development of personalism as a philosophic movement within the
history of modern philosophy, the author brings out Mounier's
fundamental theses about the person, pointing out the person's
incarnation, communication, intimate life, dynamism, personal life vocation and freedom.
