Milosz Puczydlowski - Universitetet i Sørøst-Norge

I was born in Poland (Gdynia). Studied in Krakow. Meanwhile I got some scholarships and research stays in Oslo, Stockholm and Vienna. Now I shall live and work here, in Norway. Originally I was trained in philosophy. Under my PhD studies I researched some theories of secularization (Charles Taylor, Jürgen Habermas, John Milbank, Hans Blumenberg, Grace Davie). I graduated from Jagiellonian University in Krakow, published my dissertation as a book and very suprisingly was awarded Jozef Tischner Book Prize 2018. Currently I deal with "a postsecular turn" both in philosophy and theology. I am particularly interested in question like: how has religion survived a secular critique? and how has the critique affected nowadays religion?

Responsibilities

I teach in the program for kindergarten and primary school teachers (BLU an GLU).

Competences

secularization (philosophical and sociological theories)

postsecularity
