Summary/Abstract: The author of the article, defining a contemporary culture as a space of genre scattering, points to the roles of humanistic education concentrated on combining a vision of “a cultural” world. A combination of “the scattered” is understood as a kind of a postmodern dialogue with a text which concentrates more on the impossible rather than the possible, the inefficient rather that the efficient, and, thus, constitutes an attempt to ascribe a system order to the phenomena being interpreted. A conclusion of the article is the necessity of combining recognized modernity with the knowledge about tradition at school, which leads to pluralism and syncretism in teaching.
