Myśl filozoficzna górnośląskich duchownych w opracowaniach Czesława Głombika
The Philosophical Thought of Upper Silesian Clergy in the Works of Czesław Głombik

Summary/Abstract: In his research, Czesław Głombik was concerned, among other topics, with the history of contemporary philosophy (including Catholic philosophy), renewal trends in the Catholic doctrine, and issues related to the history of Upper Silesia. These three research areas converged in Professor Głombik’s studies devoted to Upper Silesian Catholic clergy as represented, in particular, by Konstanty Michalski, Erich Przywara, Fryderyk Klimke, August Hlond, and Bolesław Kominek. In his studies, Professor Głombik drew attention to chosen aspects of their work, ones which earlier research had ignored. His studies are based on ample use of archival sources. In Professor Głombik’s publications we can find elements characteristic of the spirituality of Upper Silesia in the sense of a philosophi- cally deepened idea of the Silesia region. Among the issues he addressed were Polish and German factors in the history of Silesia, language, the Silesian ethos, the contribution of Silesians to European culture, pride, and memory.
