The text explains the basic concepts that constitute the foundation of the original philosophy of humanistic education, implemented within the Polish language as a subject taught at school. This concept is based on the consistently respected idea of subjectivity, and therefore has an anthropological and cultural character. Among other things, the author answers the questions of why, what and how to teach at school. Guided by the principle „my language is my world”, he encourages people to change the way of thinking about education. Proposing a new language for describing school reality, the author thoroughly and critically analyzes the language that is dominat in contemporary educational discourse – in order to draw attention to its imprecision, non-functionality or complete inadequacy – and thus to show how „the language thinks instead of us” and what negative consequences this entails in practice.

Education is essentially the process of humanization that is capable of leading the learners to understand the reality of life in addition to positioning human beings as human beings (caliph). But in the process, the education itself precisely shackles and even resticts the way of thinking of learners. It is certainly not in accordance with the purpose of education itself. Humanization as an educational goal is never completed. That is why the study of humanistic education always finds its context. On this stand, the writer is interested in reviewing the humanistic education in the perspective of Ki Hajar Dewantara and Paolo Freire. By using a bibliography research, the sources of data obtained through the literatures explaining the biography and the thought of both Ki Hajar Dewantara and Paolo Freire are considered relevant. And by using the content analysis techniques and interpretations, this study aims to: 1. Understand the concept of humanistic education in the perspective of Ki Hajar Dewantara; 2. Understand the concept of humanistic education in the perspective of Paolo Freire; and 3. Reviewing the comparison of humanistic education of Ki Hajar Dewantara and Paolo Freire.

The relationships between Islam and the West are complex. Even theperceptions of those relations have an important impact on the nature ofthe interactions. If the basic images that are used in discussing “Islam andthe West” are themselves ill-defiied or viewed in inconsistent ways, therelationships themselves are affected in sometimes dangerous ways.Inconsistent and contradictory terms of analysis can lead to misunderstandingand conflict.One of the most frequent conceptual mistakes made in discussingIslam and the West in the modem era is the identification of “the West”with “modemity.” This mistake has a significant impact on the way peeple view the processes of modernization in the Islamic world as well as onthe way people interpret the relationships between Islam and the West inthe contemporary era.The basic generalizations resulting from the following analysis can bestated simply: 1) “modernity“ is not uniquely “western”; 2) “the West” isnot simply “modernity”; and 3) the identifixation of “the West” with“modemity” has important negative consequences for understanding therelationships between Islam and the West. Modernity and the West aretwo different concepts and historic entities. To use the terms interchangeablyis to invite unnecessary confusion and create possible conflict’andinconsistency. This article will address the problem of definition and theapplication of the defined terms to interpreting actual experiences andrelationships.Understanding the difficulties raised by the identification of theWest with modernity involves a broader analysis within the frameworkof world history and global historical perspectives.

Way Of Thinking

By the dawn of the twentieth century, a new way of thinking about the nature of the child, classroom methods, and the purposes of the school increasingly dominated educational discourse. Something loosely called progressive education, especially its more child-centered aspects, became part of a larger revolt against the formalism of the schools and an assault on tradition. Our finest scholars, such as Lawrence A. Cremin, in his magisterial study of progressivism forty years ago, have tried to explain the origins and meaning of this movement. One should be humbled by their achievements and by the magnitude of the subject. Variously defined, progressivism continues to find its champions and critics, the latter occasionally blaming it for low economic productivity, immorality among the young, and the decline of academic standards. In the popular press, John Dewey's name is often invoked as the evil genius behind the movement, even though he criticized sugar-coated education and letting children do as they please. While scholars doubt whether any unified, coherent movement called progressivism ever existed, its offspring, progressive education, apparently did exist, wreaking havoc on the schools.

Introduction. The article discusses the poetic innovations, formal and stylistic peculiarities in the work of the talented poet Usmon Kuchkor. The poet's “muqarnas” are analyzed. The second half of the twentieth century and the period of independence have a special significance with Uzbek poetry, its charm, new tones and visual features. Methodological and formal research, the renewal of artistic thinking, the human heart and spiritual experiences, the vivid depiction of emotions form the basis of this poetry. In this, the importance of artistic thinking in particular is immeasurable. As the literary critic N. Rakhmonov noted: "The multifaceted and multilayered phenomenon - the concept of artistic thinking is a specific product of philosophical, ethical and political views, manifested in the way of thinking of the artist" [7,4].

The purpose of this paper is to present a very general overview as to how basic concepts of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics can be utilized in the selection and trim of sails. I have used the term selection to go all the way back to the routes of designing and selecting a rig for a given boat. The paper introduces absolutely no data and, in fact, does not explore any existing data in detail. Its main purpose is to show that almost any decision on rig or sails on a sail boat is always a compromise of varying forces. Sometimes these compromises are conflicting dynamics of the hull and sails, other times the forces are man-made such as rule parameters. Perhaps I could have done a more scien­tific job by choosing just one set of parameters that are in conflict and explored these in great detail showing how a conclusion can be reached from all the varying inputs into one particular problem involving rig, sails or hull. This type of thorough analysis, which would obviously require more exacting research to prove the hypothesis once defined, is not my strength. Therefore, it would be inappropriate for me to do such an analysis. My strength is in actually applying a large range of sail­ing theory to actual on-the-water sailing conditions. What I hope to accomplish by this paper is to let sailors realize that when making a decision on a rig, a particu­lar sail, or how to trim a particular sail, they first must decide what they want to accomplish with the rig, sail or sail trim. They must think about it in general terms as to what direction they should take aerodynamically or hydrodynamically to get the forces they want to achieve. Then they must go about the task with the full realization that there is no preset answer and that they must be willing to experiment in order to hone in on the optimum. The input variables of the hydrodynamics of a pitching yacht going to weather in a moderate breeze that is constantly receding and increasing in velocity as well as direction defies simple solu­tions. Thus, the best compromise is usually the best solution.

The purpose of the research is to outline the structure of the main methodological ideas within the frames of interpretive thinking in the essay of the famous Vistnyk’s writer, critic and essayist Yevhen Malaniuk. Considering the purpose and tasks of the studio, an interdisciplinary methodological base, related to the author’s “national approach”, has been worked out. The epistemological potential of national philosophy as a philosophy of national existence, national science as a theory of nation, hermeneutics as a theory and practice of interpretation and post-colonialism as interpretation of cultural phenomena from the standpoint of anti- and post-imperial consciousness are used in the work. The scientific novelty is that on the basis of the previous hermeneutic generalization and definition of national-existential methodology, a propaedeutic outlining of the structure of national-philosophical concepts within the frames of the essayistic interpretation of reality in Ye. Malaniuk is proposed. In the methodological sense, the writer’s essayism is structured by such concepts as nation-centrism, idealism, voluntarism, heroism, and can be considered as one of the variants (close by the experiences of D. Dontsov, Yu. Lypa, M. Mukhyn, etc.) of the Vistnyk’s national-philosophical (national-existential, nationalistic or nation-centric) hermeneutics, that is, the way of understanding, which the author by himself outlined as a “national approach”. The support of Ye. Malaniuk as a culture-philosopher and exegete on the eternal nation-centric values and criteria in his essayistic studies makes his reflections not only historically interesting, but also theoretically productive, classically important for the development of modern Ukrainian hermeneutics and humanities in general.

Most of the books of Islamic Creed found in Islamic heritage are characterized by their presentation of theology from the perspective of a particular sect out of the major Islamic sects. This methodology has given rise to serious and detrimental problems that affect the ummah (Muslim nation) up until this day, and from it stems the issues that divide the ummah. It is thus apparent that it is incapable of presenting the issues of theology from the perspective of that unites the Muslims. It is true that this methodology had been sound at one point during which it had to be applied; it had been the means of expression in dialogues and the way to answer questions related to pertinent matters of the time, as well as to address urgent new issues at that particular time. However, the goal of teaching Islamic Creed in this time of ours academically in specific is not based upon the instabilities and issues that it had once driven it. Hence, it is necessary to change the approach, methodology, and discourse to suit the change in impetus to and the goal of authoring such books, as well as the change in the general way of living of the people and their way of thinking. It is also worth noting that the universal moral principles associated with such changes do not necessarily contradict religion. This review undertakes a new book attempting to respond to a challenge resulted out of the classical discourses and arguments in presenting Islamic worldviews, and hence the reality of so-called Ahl Sunnah Wal Jama’ah
