Abstract
In this article, the author tries to understand the significance of “Science as a Vocation” for Max Weber’s listeners: what goals and objectives did the speaker set, and what is the relevance of the lecture to understand science and man today? As a historical source, the autobiography of K. Levit is used, which recorded the listener's personal experiences from the speech. Referring to Schleiermacher's ideas, the author seeks to interpret Weber's speech as Lebenswerk. The author connects the ideas of the speech with the historical context of that time, as well as the philosophy of life and neo-Kantianism. The author believes that Weber's call for reflection is of key importance for understanding science as vocation. The author comprehends the significance of reflection not only for science, but also for the personality as a whole - for its self-identification and self-knowledge, orientation in the social space.
