The article constitutes an attempt to present the synthetic understanding of the person as a social and relational being based on the Lublin conception of personalism of late twentieth and early twenty-first century. The analyses of the social horizon of the person cannot be limited to one, however brilliant, perspective. Person needs to be illuminated using cognitive lights of various kinds to approach a broad range of information relevant to it. The personalism of the Lublin School, which is characterised by a multiplicity of methods and forms of the description of a person, while preserving a certain common axiomatic and axiological foundation, is perfectly suited for this. Moreover, in line with the hermeneutic method of a “medium ground,” to describe the personal being personalists from Lublin such as Wincenty Granat, Karol Wojtyła/John Paul II or Czesław Stanisław Bartnik have utilized both philosophical and theological data. Deriving methodological inspiration from the masters mentioned above, the whole inquiry featured in this article is divided into two parts. They include the analyses of philosophical and theological horizons of understanding the social and interpersonal dimension of the person.
