Summary/Abstract: Anna Teresa Tymieniecka (1923–2014) – a polish philosopher acting at the turn of the XX and XXI century. She has been developing and perfecting her own conception of phenomenology of life for more than forty years. She was inspired by all disciplines of science with which she also rolled the polemic. Particularly important for her was the Edmund Husserl’s phenomenology and the natural sciences. She recognized this phenomenology as a human’s natural way of relating to the reality and to the human’s life. The natural sciences were a great source of the truth for her about the natural origins of human’s life. The phenomenology of life accepts this truth and provides a missing critical attitude into the natural sciences.
