    On the Two Versions of the „Proslogion”
    Holopainen, Toivo J. (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    This paper discusses the two-phase publication of the Proslogion and its significance for understanding the nature of Anselm’s endeavour in the treatise. The introduction highlights the importance of making sense of the peculiar combination of argument and devotion in the treatise. It also pays attention to an important recent article by R. Sharpe (2009), which effectively shatters the authoritativeness of the editorial matter in F. S. Schmitt’s edition of Anselm’s works. The second part offers a critical discussion of Schmitt’s and Sharpe’s views concerning the early versions of the Monologion and Proslogion. The third part investigates the evidence related to the publication history of the Proslogion, arguing that Anselm incorporated all the additional features, including the exchange with Gaunilo, at the same time. To elucidate why the publication history of the Proslogion is vital for the interpretation of the treatise, the last part of the paper offers an outline explaining Anselm’s objectives in the two-phase publication. It is proposed that the Proslogion should be read as Anselm’s subtle attempt to defend and justify the kind of rational method that he had been using in the Monologion.

    God Who Causes Peace and Creates Evil: the Case of Anselm of Canterbury
    Yamazaki, Hiroko (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    Anselm states “God, as it is said, ‘causes peace and creates evil’ ” in Concordia. The expression ‘God creates evil’ contradicts itself and it cannot be said that the omniscient and omnipotent God creates evil. This paper considers why Anselm made such an expression, i.e. why Anselm believed that God created evil, what it means in his ethics, and what this point of view tells us about how to live in peace with each other. The expression ‘causes peace and creates evil’ is believed to have been taken from the book of Isaiah. Evil created by God is in order to try and purify just people and to punish unjust people. God creates evil to correct the evil of humans, which in turns brings about peace. Evil committed by humans (i.e. sin) is opposed to the ‘rule of charity (regula caritatis)’ which Anselm writes of. God creates evil so that our behaviour comes to accord with that rule. True love, i.e. charity, is required for peace, and justice is required to carry out deeds of charity. Recovering distorted love to the bond of charity is the path to peace. In Anselm’s way of thinking, peace is brought about by following the rule of charity, and peace is broken when we live without and outside this rule of charity.

    Anselm of Canterbury’s quattuor modi volendi or how to avoid accusing God of sin and evil
    Malmon, Monika (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    The paper is an attempt to put into focus the problem discussed by Kathryn R. Rogers and Hugh McCann whether or not Anselm of Canterbury makes God responsible for sin and evil. The obvious Anselmian text to refer to is that of the Philosophical Fragments, in which Anselm presents his understanding of the four ways of willing something (quattuor modi volendi), something which neither Rogers nor McCann seem to take into account. The whole purpose of Anselm’s distinguishing between four types of willing is to enable one to interpret properly passages of Scripture where God’s will is referred to and, one may add, to help scholars such as Rogers and McCann find a simple way out of the labyrinth, in which, it would seem, they have lost themselves in.

    From the proof of God’s existence to the abacus
    Otisk, Marek (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    This paper deals with observing the peripatetic motives and influences of Boethius on the education and thinking of the late 10th and 11th centuries. The connection between Anselm‘s proofs of God‘s existence from Monologion and Proslogion and so called mensa geometricalis, i.e. the abacus, a counting board used for arithmetical calculations and geometrical demonstrations circa 1,000 A.D., is presented as the entirely natural way of peripatetic interpretation of the intellectual world of Anselm of Canterbury, initiated by Franciscus Salesius Schmitt, through a search for other traces of Aristotelian heritage in the 11th century and in the period around the year 1,000 (primarily under the influence of Boethius‘s texts).

    Zentrale Anliegen der christlichen Soteriologie im Denken Anselms von Canterbury
    Kempa, Jacek (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    The soteriology of Anselm of Canterbury had a strong influence on theological reflection in the past. In this article we have considered presumed main reason for this state. This major reason is an attempt to explain the salvific action of Christ in a precise and rational way. This account profoundly integrates the most significant elements of the faith of the Church: the radical and universal need for salvation, the unity of God’s justice and mercy, and the uniqueness of the Mediator of salvation. These elements are still relevant also in the contemporary, pluralistic expression of the faith in redemption, that is why Anselm’s teaching may retain its inspiring abilities.

    Anselms Präsenz. Momente und Assoziationen Zum Gedenken an den 40. Todestag von Franciscus Salesius Schmitt OSB
    Kohlenberger, Helmut (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    Anselm’s thinking is a stimulating enterprise – inspiring since the later Middle Ages and early modern thinkers who were smart enough to avoid the gap of circulus vitiosus deus (Friedrich Nietzsche) seeing in God the identity of human mind, absorbed by the errors of void mirroring. It is evident that the Gerberon edition of Anselm’s works (1675) and the modern edition by Dom Schmitt (since World War II, finished 1961) inspired Anselmian studies. Here we are focussing on 20th century’s studies since Guardini’s and Karl Barth’s insights into the ecclesiastical dimension of Anselm’s thought (opposing misleading formalized analytical interpretations even before these became fashionable). After all, we can see in Anselm a landmark thinker of frontiers – starting from giving voice to the wishful thinking of the good in itself and leading to see what is given to us, starting from monologue to dialogue. In this way we can see in Anselm`s work a path – directly through the tremendous self-denying errors of modernity.

    Edith Stein and the Anselmian tradition
    Grzesik, Tadeusz (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    Edith Stein is not usually associated with the thought of Anselm of Canterbury. However, when we read her “Endliches und Ewiges Sein”, we realize that she understood Anselm’s ratio of the Proslogion far better than Thomas Aquinas and effectively defended it against Aquinas’ criticism. Apart from their feeling for metaphysics, Anselm and Stein have another common feature: they both offer their testimony to the quaerere Deum aspect of religious life. The “intra in cubiculum mentis tuae” idea is an essential leitmotiv for them: they sought the solitude of the monastic cell in order to seek their Master without hindrance from the outside world and to contemplate the divinely instituted order of reality. In the present-day civilization of the West which does not “have God in its heart”, the example of St. Anselm “father of Scholasticism” and of St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross – one of the patron saints of Europe, may serve to inspire those who seek a solution to the great spiritual void of Western society as well as save philosophy from disintegration.

    Bł. John Henry kard. Newman (1801-1890). Doctor Ecclesiae?
    Surmiak, Wojciech (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    This presentation is provided two main topics: first, a review of the history of the role of Doctors of the Church and how the discernment process contributed to the development of the Church’s understanding of this title, using the recent evaluation (1997, 2012) and the conferral of the doctorate; secondly, a careful and systematic evaluation of Newman’s fulfillment of the Congregation for the Doctrine ofthe Faith’s Norms and Criteria was offered based upon the commentaries of Pope John Paul II and his successor Benedict XVI regarding Newman’s eminent doctrine. The final part of the article shows the possibility of Newman’s inclusion in the exclusive college of the Doctores Ecclesiae.

    Faith and Reason in the Teaching of Bl. John Henry Newman
    Kłos, Jan (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    This paper focuses on the relationship between faith and reason in the writings of Bl. John Henry Newman, one of the greatest personalities of nineteenth-century Britain. The topicality of Newmana is stressed today in the context of social, political, and theological considerations. He is called in invisible peritus of the Second Vatican Council. In his sermons and essays, sought to show that there is no contradiction between faith and reason because in our daily matters we more often than not act on faith. If such is the case, we must find a broader sense of rationality. In this broader sense, Newman finds certitude. This certitude is different than certainty of logical propositions, for it concerns concrete acts, therefore it is personal rather than merely logical. Certitude resembles personal maturity in which we assent to certain truths and follow what we have thus assented to. This following, this personal readiness Newman calls realization. To realize something in faith means to transcend natural difficulties and grasp the truth.

    Osoba i metoda personacji
    Gałecki, Sebastian (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    The term “person” from the beginning was the foundation of both Christian anthropology and theology. Today, we are inclined to understand this notion in the way proposed by Karol Wojtyla and other representatives of the so-called Christian personalism. This paper has two goals: to familiarize the reader with a theory of the person (which had a significant influence on twentieth-century personalism), developed by nineteenth-century theologian and philosopher, John Henry Newman, and to describe and verify Newman’s “method of personation”. These two elements – the concept of the person and the method of personation – form an original and inspiring anthropology. While the first one is a kind of a classical theory of the person, the second is an important novelty in philosophy and theology. “Method of personation” is a very brave thesis that appears throughout the works of Cardinal Newman: the value of a theory largely depends on the authorities supporting it. Can the history and theology find evidence of the fundamental role of outstanding persons in identifying and spreading the truth?

    An individual realisation of the linguistic genre of sermon in John Henry Newman’s „Parochial and Plain Sermons”
    Kuczok, Marcin (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    The aim of the present paper is to analyse the structural, pragmatic, cognitive and stylistic aspects of the linguistic genre of sermon in Bl. John Henry Cardinal Newman C.O.’s Parochial and Plain Sermons. When it comes to the structural aspects, Newman’s sermons lack any compositional schema, described by rhetoric theories. In the Anglican Church of the Victorian era, sermons constituted a kind of “oral literature”, read from the pulpit during the service. From the pragmatic perspective, Newman’s example of life played a special role in his preaching as a means for communicating the Word of God. Newman’s sermons were delivered in a kind of supernatural atmosphere and created a mutual magnetism between the preacher and the listeners. In the cognitive dimension, Parochial and Plain Sermons constitute almost a compendium of Christian dogma, with emphasis on the practical application of theological truths in the Christian life. There are also numerous references to Newman’s personal life. From the stylistic perspective, Newman’s sermons strike with simplicity, connected with the so-called “real style”: Newman uses conventional language, avoids sophisticated rhetorical figures, and provides concrete examples from the Bible, everyday life, and the lives of saints and Church Fathers.

    Tajemnica i wspólnota. Wokół encykliki „Lumen fidei” papieża Franciszka
    Wiończyk, Grzegorz (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    The word mystery occurs numerous times in the contents of the encyclical of Pope Francis and refers to various realities. It is closely correlated with the community of the Church, which is the proper place to make experiencing God’s mystery more accessible, which takes place in the most distinct manner in the sacraments. God’s mysteriousness must be distinguished from the notion of mystery. The mysteriousness is not eliminated by Revelation, as this is of a practical nature and is fulfilled in the covenant of God and human. Each human word is imperfect when compared with God’s mystery, therefore also theological statements are only a hermeneutic element of the polemics of the history which brings God closer, yet it cannot and will never be able to encompass it in its expressions.

    Vestimenta protonotariuszy apostolskich w świetle obowiązujących przepisów
    Bednarski, Paweł (Księgarnia Św. Jacka, 2014)
    The dignity of protonotary apostolic was the highest distinction that could receive a priest who did not have episcopal ordination. Over the centuries, various privileges and titulary associated with that dignity underwent significant changes. The Second Vatican Council re-emphasized the differences between the ordination second and third grade. Therefore, it was necessary to revise the existing regulations regarding, inter alia, the privilege of use the episcopal insignia by the priests. The article is an analysis of the contemporary norms regarding the dignity of the protonotary apostolic and related privileges. This article attempts to take consideration of the current possibilities of use by protonotaries apostolic the episcopal vestments.
