The article addresses the issue of leisure in the sense of ancient 'schole'. It strives to uncover the relationship between Aristotelian concept of theoretical activity and 'schole' as vacuity. It shows a paradoxical character of 'schole' as purposeless time that forms condition for a meaningful activity. How, then, to restore 'schole' as vacuity today, when colonization of time expands?
