Poslání Jana Křtitele v Lukášově dvojdíle
The Mission of John the Baptist in Luke’s Double Work
Ladislav Tichý
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):1-20 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0411371 
The contribution analyses the texts in the Gospel of Luke and in the Acts of the Apostle (both works written by the same author, traditionally called Luke) that concern the mission of John the Baptist. John is mentioned relatively often, particularly in the Gospel of Luke, so that the resulting image of his mission recorded by the evangelist is sufficiently distinguished. John the Baptist is the culmination of the Old Testament (cf. Luke 16:16). He fulfils the prophetic mission of converting people to God. He is more, however, than a prophet (cf. Luke 7:26) because he also immediately prepares the coming of Christ. John is already closely joined with...
Sex, gender a homoerotika v Pavlových listoch
Sex, Gender and Homoeroticism in Paul's Letters
Samuel Javornický
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):21-40 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0332659
The paper provides a philological, literary, hermeneutical, anthropological and gender analysis of Paul’s Letters (Proto-Pauline) which deals with question of homoeroticism (Rom 1:18–32 and 1 Cor 6:9–10). Based on an interpretative tradition which had an absolute prevalence up until the 1960s, it postulates the hypothesis of Paul’s strong heteronormativity, which it consequently intends to examine. It also studies the concept of gender in Greco-Roman society and in Hebrew tradition and the symbolical models lying behind it. It inquires into eventual sources and influences of Paul’s thoughts in the Torah, in Second Temple...
Morálny rozmer solidarity v diele svätého Tomáša z Villanovy vo svetle encykliky Deus caritas est
The Moral Dimension of Solidarity in the Work of Saint Thomas of Villanova in the Light of the Encyclical Letter Deus Caritas Est
Jozef Ržonca
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):41-60 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0351336
This work is aimed around the perception of values of solidarity in the sermons of St. Thomas of Villanova (1486 –1555). The encyclical letter Deus caritas est of Pope Benedict XVI serves as a methodological base for the identification of solidarity content in the work of St. Thomas of Villanova. The work presents the following questions in preaching in the sixteenth century in Spain: the foundation of solidarity, the role of Christian charity in the solidarity discourse and the formation of solidarity structures. The sermons of St. Thomas of Villanova place an emphasis on internal dialogue and creativity in manifestations of solidarity,...
Periodikum La Civiltà Cattolica a evoluční vznik – stvoření člověka (1850 –1980)
The Revue La Civiltà Cattolica and Evolutionary Origin – Creation of Man (1850–1980)
Ctirad Václav Pospíšil
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):61-76 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2019.0011006
The study maps the attitudes of Italian Catholic theologians publishing in the prestigious journal La Civiltà Cattolica on the issue of the evolutionary origin of the human body from 1850–1980. The strict rejection of the so-called Mivart‘s thesis lasted up to the beginning of the 1940s when things began to change gradually. It is noteworthy that German and Italian Jesuits used different strategies. The former approached Mivart‘s thesis in an increasingly liberal way as of the 1890s, while the latter remained in opposition up until the 1940s. Czech Catholic theology followed the German more closely, rather than the official Italian...
Křesťanství a „realita lidského života“: Projekt fenomenologické teologie Edwarda Farleyho
Christianity and the "Reality of Life": The Project of the Phenomenological Theology of Edward Farley
Josef Mikulášek
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):77-97 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0311222
This article aims to present Edward Farley‘s book entitled Ecclesial Man: A Social Phenomenology of Faith and Reality to a Czech theological audience. The book by this American Protestant theologian is a result of his efforts to create a "phenomenological theology" that expresses itself as a fundamental theology about the Church and provides solid prolegomena to the study of systematic ecclesiology. For our postmodern and post-Christian society, Ecclesial Man provides an outline of Christianity as a singular pre-reflective reality of the church inter-subjectively constituted and reflects how this reality is uniquely related to the existence...
Elizabeth Anscombová: filosofická psychologie a gramatika v sapienciální perspektivě
Elizabeth Anscombe: the Philosophical Psychology and the Philosophical Grammar in the Continuity of Tradition
Lukáš Jan Fošum
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):99-111 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0341271
Elizabeth Anscombe places an emphasis on the importance of philosophical psychology and "depth grammar". Her philosophy rediscovers the basic predispositions for a Christian vision of the human act. Human beings are the cause of their intentional acts, which is why it makes sense to speak about sin. We cannot, however, have a deeper knowledge of sin but in the light of Christian Revelation. Philosophy is supposed to be compatible with this Revelation and help for its understanding needs to be supported by an adequate renewal of methodology in which disciplines such as grammar, psychology or the philosophy of nature are interconnected.
Obraz člověka v díle Metoděje Habáně
The Image of Man in the Work of Metoděj Habáň
Petr Macek
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):113-129 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0191170
The main aim of the article is to provide an introduction to major themes, which can be found in the work of Metoděj Habáň OP (1899 –1984), the Czech Dominican priest and philosopher. It concludes, based on an overview of Habáň’s key texts, that the main purpose of his work was to defend man as a free and spiritual being, characterized above all by rational thinking and free will. We can therefore argue that Metoděj Habáň should be understood primarily as an author in the field of philosophical anthropology. The paper presents the basic points of Habáň’s thinking, which is based on the interconnection between the world of modern...
Jsou všichni lidé osoby, a jestliže ano, proč?: Náčrt SKIP argumentů a argumentace Roberta Spaemanna
Are All People Persons, and If So, Why? An Outline of the SKIP Arguments and the Argumentation of Robert Spaemann
Vojtěch Šimek
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):131-145 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0371624
The question of whether all people (i.e., members of homo sapiens) are persons returns whenever some people are, in practice, excluded from the community of persons and when at the same time it is claimed that people have human dignity and basic human rights only as much as they are persons. This question is still topical, for example, for the moral evaluation of some assisted reproduction procedures and embryo‑destructive research. The thesis that all people are persons is currently defended and justified by the SKIP-arguments. The article outlines the SKIP-arguments in propedeutic form and the argumentation of Robert Spaemann parallel to these...
Výzvy k inovácii pastorácie manželství a rodiny vyplývajúce zo situácie rozvedených a znovuzosobášených
Certain Challenges Regarding the Innovation of Pastoral Care of Marriage and Family Connected with the Situation of the Divorced and Remarried
Ladislav Csontos
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):147-168 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0441349
Under the influence of a changing cultural mentality, divorce and cohabitation have become an acceptable and common matter for most Catholics (not only) in Slovakia. The experience gained through the pastoral care of the divorced and remarried reveals, in a similar way as the exhortation Amoris Laetitia, that many Catholics who ask for the sacrament of marriage have not been sufficiently evangelized and catechized. It is a challenge inviting us not only to further development of the pastoral care of the divorced but also to the innovation of pastoral care of marriage and the family, especially in terms of filling the gap of the missing evangelization...
Svoboda a právo v perspektivě obratu konstantinovského a za Jana XXIII.
Freedom and the Law in Ecumenical Perspective of the "Constantinian/John XXIII. Turn"
Andrzej Pastwa
Studia Theologica 2019, 21(1):169-182 | DOI: 10.5507/sth.2018.0381359
Two events constitute the historical structure of the hereby study and an impulse to undertake reflection upon the contemporarily significant – e.g. within the area of the broadly defined ecumenia – the topic of the relationship between: freedom and law, in the depiction of the Catholic Church. The Edict of Milan, published jointly by the Emperors of the western and eastern part of the Empire 1700 years ago, established the freedom of religion in the Roman Empire. This epochal step taken by Emperor Constantine the Great – for the Emperor of the western part of the Empire is believed to have been the initiator and executor of the transformation...
