    Lektura młodzieżowa a asceza (na marginesie doświadczeń św. Jana Bosko)
    Świda, Andrzej (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 1978)
    A tutor and spiritual leader faces the problem of transmitting to young people the instructions which are commonly called ascetic norms. Draving on the experience of Father Bosco, a tutor of great calibre, w e come to the conclusion that many factors contribute to the solution of the problem, such as: the testimony of one’s word and life, the right kind of influence from the environment, and a carefully selected reading list. The pupils, however, have to be prepared for the readings. If we want to use the lives of the saints nowadays, we have to take into consideration the age and background of our pupils, and the attitudes of contemporary young people. Consequently it is not easy to find adequate books. It seems that the best solution is offered by Vatican Council II which encourages everyone to read the most perfect of all the lives ‒ the Gospel. In any case the question of the lives of the saints is still valid for the solution of the problem of transmitting norms to the young.

    Wartości humanistyczne w ascetyce św. Franciszka Salezego
    Struś, Józef (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 1978)
    Humanism in Francis de Sales’ views is not merely theoretical but it constitutes the basis for the spiritual counselling as actually practiced by the Bishop from Geneva. Contrarivise to Jansenism which condemns all that is human, Francis de Sales accepts all that relates to man and that contributes to the development of his personality. The body and the soul make up one person. This is why a Salesian does not scorn the body but takes care of it in a mature way. Instead of emphasizing the mortification of the body, Francis de Sales encourages spiritual mortification. It means accepting every day of life as it is. He does not sacrifice feelings for the sake of faith, either. He simply recommends moderation in this respect, too, and this obviously helps to be a man. It allows one to remain a man also when one is exceptionally eager in practicing piety. Francis de Sales does not accept the antagonism between faith and intellect. He does not oppose women’s beautifying practices, he actually recommends taking care of one’s appearance. However, he warns against overdoing it. He is an advocate of joyful piety without melancholy and sadness.
