Pozycja Eschatologia i utopiaRatzinger, Joseph (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2019)For Joseph Ratzinger, the reference to truth and intellect as Logos is crucial to understanding the issue of faith. Intellect is expanded by faith so that it goes beyond the narrow framework of empiricism. Rationality protects the faith against the dangerous expectation that historical problems will resolve themselves in eschaton or in the 1000-year-old kingdom of the „messiah” pulled to the ground by specific political measures. The author pointed out that many people oppose utopia and eschatology. There is a danger that one can understand a utopia as a rational construction of an optimal community institution, enabling a happy life that is kept as a critical mirror for existing irregularities, and treat eschatology as the end of all difficulties of the world’s end. But then we receive extreme opposition. Ratzinger suggests recognizing that eschatology is an application of the Greek search for logos and a desire for understanding (philosophy) of whole of the world to the revealed Christian faith. Then the concepts of „utopia” and „eschatology” complement one another. For the retired Pope, eschatology is a message of faith: on the basis of the confession of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, it will herald of the resurrection of the dead, eternal life and the kingdom of God. The future is the Christ and His glorious resurrection, reminds Ratzinger in the face of many earthly utopias.Pozycja Wizja końca świata w pietystycznym chiliazmieMiodoński, Leon (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2019)The subject of the article is the concept of the end of the world, which was constituted on the basis of the linear concept of time, characteristic for Christian thought from St. Augustine. The thesis is considered that in German pietism there has been a radical interpretation of this category in the chiliastic spirit. The structure of the article is presented in the following way. The first part of the article introduces a problem of temporality and history in Christianity. The second part highlights the critical attitude of Luther and Lutheranism to chiliasm. The next part – a main part of the article – focuses on an analysis of the concept of the end of the world in the main representatives of pietism, first of all in Johann Albrecht Bengel, who developed a comprehensive system combining chronology with biblical hermeneutics. Bengel, like many others, accepted a short eschatological perspective. In his case it was 1836. The synthetic summary indicated the importance and influence of the piety chiliasm on the philosophy of German idealism.
