- Henryk_Skolimowski abstract "Henryk Skolimowski (born 1930 in Warsaw) is a Polish philosopher. He completed technical studies, musicology and philosophy in Warsaw. He received his Ph.D. in philosophy from Oxford University.The student of Tadeusz Kotarbiński and Kazimierz Ajdukiewicz, he specialized in logic and philosophy of language. Skolimowski earned a doctorate at the University of Oxford, where he also taught before he began his professorships at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, and then at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he was for many years a professor of philosophy, and now holds the position of professor emeritus. Today he is considered to be the leading thinker in the field of eco-philosophy.Skolimowski's work is targeted at overcoming human angst and disconnection caused in part by the overwhelming preponderance of modern technology, which had its seeds in the Industrial Revolution. Our accelerating dependence on technology at the expense of a right relationship with Nature and the planet is a prime concern within Skolimowski's work, as is the increasing inability of organized patriarchal religions to provide a meaningful spiritual platform from which modern human beings may appropriately evolve. During decades of travel and involvement with leading thinkers across the globe, Skolimowski has become familiar a great variety of cultures, and has included winning precepts from them into his works. He is the author of over 50 books and hundreds of scientific and academic papers. He is also a poet. He writes in English. In the years 1992-1997 Skolimowski held the position of Chair of Eco-Philosophy at Technical University of Lodz, the first such position of its kind in the world.Degrees and Scientific Titles: M.Sc (geodesy) 1956 - Warsaw University of Technology, Warsaw, Poland, MA (Philosophy) 1959 - University of Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland, D.Phil. 1964 - University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom.Academic experience: University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom - scholar 1959-60, 1962–64, 1968–69 University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom - research scholar 1969-70 University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA - Assistant professor, associate professor 1964-70 Philosopher in Residence at Arcosanti, Arizona, USA 1969-85 University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA - Professor 1971-1993 Philosopher in Residence, Dartington Hall, Devon, UK 1979-83 Technical University of Lodz, Chair of Ecological Philosophy, Lodz, Poland - Professor 1992-97He was a member of scientific organizations such as: member of the task force on Appropriate Technology of the US Congress consultant to the program on Technology and Culture of UNESCO 1976-78 Teilhard Society in London - Vice President 1980-90 International Union for the Conservation of Nature 1981-86 Committee \"Man and Environment\", Polish Academy of Sciences 1995-2010Other information: Skolimowski is a creator of a new branch of philosophy called Eco-Philosophy, which claims that THE WORLD IS A SANCTUARY. From this central assumption immediately follows reverence for life and for all there is, responsibility for the world and society, altruism and sharing as the basis for ethics, and ecological spirituality, which maintains that the ecological and the spiritual are one. Swimming against the current of the disengaged academic philosophy, Skolimowski has insisted, for the last four decades, that philosophy must be committed to life, must be living philosophy, helping life to unfold and to flourish. More recently, he proposed a new cosmology of light, according to which Light is the source of it all; it is truly a Great Mother; if we have the eyes to see and the mind to bear its greatness. Light is the source of all spiritualities and religions. Skolimowski's passions are: hiking in the mountains - the higher the better; watching the sunrise over the Himalayas - it has been his sublime experience; also watching the stars in the mountains on moonless nights...and sometimes dialoguing with the stars. creator of a new department of philosophy - eco-philosophy, Poland 1993 Founder of the Eco-Philosophy Center based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA. 1981 member of the President's Council for Environmental in Poland 1994/97Awards and distinctions: Gold Medal of Merit, Ministry of the Environment, Poland 1999 Medal of the City of Wroclaw 1997 (for activities in the field of environmental protection in Poland) Zielone Serce Przyrodzie, Warsaw 2001BibliographyBooks 2011.
