Repentance in the Thought of Dietrich von Hildebrand
Abstract
In this article, I intend to analyze phenomenologically Dietrich von Hildebrand's proposal in relation to the theme of repentance and conversion. In this sense, initially, we will see that for Hildebrand the primary vocation of the human person consists of participating in the world of values. After that, I will talk about self-knowledge, the most important presupposition for repentance. Finally, I will go into the theme of repentance and its relation to conversion.
