Sažetak

Due to the fact that Albert Schweitzer can relate his ethics of reverence for life with the inorganic as well as society and the world as a whole, this paper will focus, instead on the subject field, on the notion of reverence. Concepts of secular reverence by Immanuel Kant and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe point the way toward Schweitzer’s reverence as entanglement of ethical relationships of human subject towards self and the world, as a result of a consequent reflective self-cultivation for willingness to take responsibility. With Nietzsche, Schweitzer rejects any kind of normative formulation of his attitude ethics, which as its exclusive normative principle accepts the unlimited willingness to preserve and promote life, and to refrain from its destruction.
