They are secularisation, desacralisation and dechristianisation. In these trends certain negative human attitudes are revealed: naturalism in interpreting all phenomena, liberalism and anarchism in thinking and acting, relativism and consumptionism. These attitudes are transformed into peculiar ideologies ruling cultural life. The foundation of the crisis of the contemporary culture is man, the human esse, furnished with improper attitudes and systems of values (especially departure from the truth and good). The source of the departure from the absolute values is methodological empiricism, rationalism with its apriorism and analytical philosophy, existentialism and post-modernism. The paper is concluded with the proposition that it is necessary to return to classical philosophy in order to „heal” contemporary culture.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/kulturacultureXX w.współczesnośćpresentnegatywne cechy kulturynegative features of cultureaksjologiaaxiologywartościvalueskryzyscrisiskryzys kulturycrisis of culturesekularyzacjasecularisationdesakralizacjadesacralizationdechrystianizacjadechristianisationfilozofiaphilosophyfilozofia współczesnacontemporary philosophyfilozofia klasycznaclassical philosophyArticle
