as  a  existential  way  to  their  identity;  as  a  the  premise  of  existential  dialogue  between  «I»  and
«Thou»; as a mystical unity of two in the light of the idea of androgynous. In the candidate`s thesis

spiritual  and  sexual  love.  Violated  the  medieval  conflict  areas  tribal  an  individual  in  the  human
being.  In  the  context  of  love  problems  especially  the  example  of  the  philosophy  of  love  N.
