Comenius’s Notion of Happiness and Its Platonic-Aristotelian Connotations
Original language description
Comenius’s understanding of human life as practice set in a society- wide (universally reformed) context of blissfulness is foreign to modern society today. Virtuous and moral behavior is today interpreted primarily psychologically. Virtues do not grow out of a society-wide understanding of practice, but as a psychological disposition about which the psychology of the individual testifies. The consequence of the psychological reduction of virtuous-moral behavior is the replacement of virtuous conduct by a moral norm. Comenius’s good-living person (that is, wise, virtuous, and pious), who searched for their place in the world, is in today’s modern so- ciety replaced by an ahistorical, a-practical individuality embedded in a particular and discontinuous life context, which makes the living world one great, incomprehensible maze–labyrinth.
