Summary/Abstract: In this paper, we are examining and dramatizing historical aspects of crisis manifestation in contemporary human. We aim to describe how historical perspectives of crisis manifest in terms of experiencing the facticity of reality – how such experiencing raises a unique question about identity, contributes to a transformation of the status of the real, imposes a different dynamic between reality and the subject. We clarify how such transformation leads to a different understanding of the role of that which is opaque in both the human and reality, how it reveals the interplay between the bodily-affective and the spiritually-reflexive aspects of human existence, and its role for the subject who thinks, interprets, acts and knows. This examination of perspectives of crisis manifestation in contemporary human aims to highlight the following: how and why the ways of "carrying" with it, recognized as strategies of "not responding" to such historical experience, contribute to human self-enslavement and types of ressentiment that we seek to identify; how given such historical experience, a different attitude towards oneself and reality is feasible, i.e., how a response to it is feasible in the newly emerged historical circumstances. It is emphasized that considering the relationship to such a historical situation is additionally significant because neglecting it increases human renunciation of those aspects of being that are shown to be of crucial importance for the human future.
