Philosophy Tischner, in The Decline of Thomistic Christianity (1970), challenged the philosophical primacy of Thomism, accusing it of closing philosophy in one right direction and thus obscuring Revelation. Tischner believed that philosophy was independent and, although imbued with the spirit of Christianity in many respects, could not be reduced to it. In articles collected in the books Unhappy Gift of Freedom (1993), In the Land of Ill Imagination (1997) and Priest on the Wanderings (1999), he expressed his views on the issue of building a new social, political and ethical order.
