The Transcendence of the Person in Forgiveness. The Perspective of Relational Sociology
Wysocki, Artur (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
The paper is focused on a very important aspect of building society and relationality, that is, forgiveness. This issue is quite often treated from the psychological, philosophical or theological perspectives, but it is still not sufficiently worked out in social sciences. Actually, it is also my point that no social theory should avoid this question, as it plays such an important role in social relations. As I will try to demonstrate, forgiveness has a special corrective character in human relationships as well as in building society and shaping human personality. The dynamics of forgiveness with its morphogenetic process, in a special way, transforms a person and his relations.
The Origin of Moral Norms in Business Ethics and Marketing Ethics: Personalism versus Utilitarianism
Zadroga, Adam (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
The article focuses on the possibility of using the principles of personalism and utilitarianism in business ethics and marketing ethics. The author answers the question: Why should we first choose personalism, and not utilitarianism? The main thesis of this article is that for business ethics and marketing ethics the personalistic norm of morality is more appropriate than the utilitarian standard of morality. The article aims: (1) at assessing the utilitarian standard of morality used in business and marketing ethics; (2) at introducing the concept of business ethics and marketing ethics based on the assumptions of personalism.
Migratory Phenomenon of Africans to Europe Challenge of Living Together
Tata, Gabriel G. (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
The cohabitation in a multicultural society asks for an inter-subjectivity in terms of unity and specificity. It requires that the individual be recognized, and together become authentic partners of dialogue. In encountering others, some points of insertions may be needed but with the necessity to respect the principle of distinction, and to have an objective to look on the risk of separation or the one of confusion. Cultural diversity allows then the dialectic that will be shown in the training liberties by constructive dialogue. When diversity, an archetypal value of cohabitation breaks the challenges of the exclusivist “we” and the one of a bitter “they”, it results in a cross-culturality, as long as self and other gratitude, and to an interior and exterior reconciliation. Living together in a world of a plurality of culture, is not an impoverishment, or a personal ruin, because every cultural identity can reveal itself and transform our life.
The Mystery of Human Participation in the Paschal Mystery of Christ According to Medieval Mysticism of the Low Countries
Lekka, Dorota (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
The article analyses the question of human participation in the paschal mystery of Christ in the understanding of medieval mystics of the Low Countries. The presentation consist of three parts. The first part explains the concept of the mystery of human participation in the paschal mystery of Christ, the second presents the foundations of human participation in the mystery of Christ on the basis of selected writings by John of Ruusbroec, Beatrice of Nazaret, Hadewijch, as well as Arnhem Mystical Sermons and The Evangelical Pearl. The last part explains the ways of human participation as conceived of in the above-mentioned medieval mystical works.
Fr. Jerzy Popiełuszko – Victim of Political Repression or Martyr of the Faith?
Kindziuk, Milena (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
There is an ongoing debate on the character of Fr. Jerzy Popiełuszko’s activity between 1980 and 1984, as well as the major motives for his abduction and murder on October 19, 1984 perpetrated by officers of the Security Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (Pol. SB). The present paper argues that treating this activity and death in a purely political way constitutes a fundamental misunderstanding of the priest’s attitude or a conscious propaganda. An analysis of the priest’s activities, motives behind his pastoral commitment, the course of the Holy Masses for the Fatherland as well as the content of his sermons, shows that he was guided by religious, pastoral and spiritual reasons, and his death was martyrdom for the faith.
The Role of Natural Theology and Its Sources in the Anti-Eunomian Discourse Concerning Comprehensibility of God
Kochańczyk-Bonińska, Karolina (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
Bazyli i Grzegorz krytykowali dialektykę, uważając, że próbuje ona „zawłaszczyć” dla siebie prawdy, które mogą być poznane tylko poprzez Objawienie. Nie znaczy to jednak, że obaj nie korzystali tak z naturalnych, jak i nadprzyrodzonych źródeł wiedzy o Bogu. W konsekwencji rozwinęli naturalną teologię i świadomie używali argumentów opartych na poznaniu zmysłowym, ludzkiej logice, tradycji filozoficznej, a zwłaszcza prawdach powszechnie przyjętych. Choć Bazyli i Grzegorz z pogardą odnosili się do dialektyki, a nawet filozofii, to w praktyce wykorzystywali wszystkie dostępne narzędzia, aby dotrzeć do prawdy. Uprzywilejowane miejsce zajmowały oczywiście Pismo Święte i Tradycja, ale nie deprecjonowali takich źródeł poznania jak ludzkie zmysły, rozum i powszechne pojęcia.
The Philosophy of the Person-of-the-Therapist Training Model: the Underlying Premises
Aponte, Harry J. (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
The “Person-of the-Therapist” model is an approach to training and supervising therapists. The concept of a therapist as a wounded healer appears to be key in interpreting the therapeutic process and its healing power. This article aims at presenting this model’s philosophical foundations, which promote a creative use of the therapists’ personal potential independently of the different psychotherapeutic schools that they represent.
Pastoral Communication in the Communal Aspect
Przybyłowski, Jan Kazimierz (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
The article discusses the problem of new pastoral communication that, due to the changes taking place in the Church and in the world, should have a communal character. Nowadays, pastoral communication is a significant research area of Pastoral Theology whose aim is to study the life and activity of the modern Church. Today’s Christians very often feel afraid and lost. For this reason, the teaching of the Gospel does not yield the expected fruit. This is why, the teaching of Christ should be proclaimed in the community in which the confused will experience love and find the meaning and purpose in their lives.
Strategies of Coping with Transgressor ‒ Polish Validation of TRIM-18 Questionnaire
Kossakowska, Marlena M.; Kwiatek, Piotr (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
The aim of this paper is to present the results of Polish validation of Transgression – Related Interpersonal Motivations questionnaire (TRIM-18) by McCullough, Root, and Cohen (2006) which measures the phenomena of forgiveness. The article contains a description of the procedure of Polish translation, the results of the test reliability, discriminant and confirmatory validity. The study was conducted among 530 participants aged between 18 and 84 (345 females and 185 males). Eleven questionnaires were used for assessing the validity of the measurement. This study confirms that the structure of Polish TRIM-18 is relevant to the English language version. Polish TRIM-18 is also a very reliable tool. It can be successfully used in Polish conditions.
The Septuagint in the Documents of the Pontifical Biblical Commission after the Promulgation of the motu proprio “Sedula cura”
Jędrzejewski, Sylwester (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
This presentation focuses on the question: what meaning does the Pontifical Biblical Commission in its documents promulgated after Sedula cura give to the Septuagint in our times? It seems that the references to the LXX appear in the latest documents of the Commission in a rather humble way and frequently ambiguously. The Septuagint is basically perceived as the Jewish Greek Bible. Since it is also the Christian Old Testament, identified and recognised by the Church, the Pontifical Biblical Commission accepts this fact, but in its reflection it does not assign a significant and adequate place to the Septuagint.
Catholic Periodicals in Eastern Borderlands of the Second Polish Republic (Part 1 – General)
Zając, Jerzy (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2017)
Reborn in 1918, the Second Polish Republic returned to the part of the territory lost in the East to undertake the hardships of developing the war-ravaged land. Its history was reflected in the local press and the memories of the “Polonuses” living in these areas. It was recorded in dozens of magazine titles issued mainly by the contemporary Catholic world. The titles mentioned in the present work indicate the life areas of people inhabiting those regions, which were penetrated by the press and which are, in a sense, equivalent only to the names of Polish old mansions in the East. Getting acquainted with their content requires meticulous study which would allow to discover and bring closer the worlds described there and still little known to us and which were deliberately and systematically destroyed by anti-Polish and anti-Catholic forces. The uneasy task of deciphering the Borderlands from its publishing legacy which is still, to this day, being rediscovered, will constitute the content of the second part of the study devoted to Catholic periodicals in Eastern Borderlands of the Second Polish Republic.
