Jan Amos Comenius, Pansofia, anthropology, human nature, nature, free will.

We have tried in this study to look at the concept natura from the point of view of Comenius?s Pansophia. It showed that Comenius?s concept of nature is inseparable from his anthropological view to which we therefore had to devote attention as well. We thus presented man as a constituent of the material world, a constituent however which, through his immortal mind and its three infinite components, surpasses the material world and rises above it. Man can, especially in his limitlessness and freedom of human will, resemble God. The human individual thus becomes not only the creation of God, but the partner and collaborator of God, insofar as the process of completing the work of Creation is concerned. The outcomes of human activity are thus the world of human creation, the world of morality and the world of the spirit, in which nature is brought to perfection. At the conclusion of the study, we looked specifically at the concept natura humana, which resonates not only in the Pansophia, but in the whole Consulatio. We showed that it is possible to reconstruct Comenius?s concept of human nature, despite all the interpretational difficulties, and that the basis of human nature is the openness of human existence founded on the free and unrestricted will.
