Acedia – śmierć duchowa czy szansa na rozwój?
Tanasiewicz, Monika Danuta (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2023)
This article aims to present the issue of acedia as a spiritual crisis that can lead to spiritual death, or become a path of growth and transformation towards a more conscious living of one's life. The problem of acedia was the first to be studied by the Desert Father Evagrius Ponticus, who today is considered its greatest theorist and became an inspiration for later authors. Today, many works are being written on the subject, in which acedia is discussed both from the side of psychology and Christian austerity. The article examines the complex issue of acedia, its sources, symptoms and remedies to help combat it. This topic is particularly important in these days so marked by sadness and depression, so it is all the more necessary to study this issue in order to bring help to suffering people.
