Pozycja Empirical Research as an Area of Research Activity of Polish Catechetical ExpertsZellma, Anna (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2015)Contemporary Polish catechetical idea takes into account various issues of teaching and Christian education in the family, at school or in the parish. A lot of attention is paid to concepts and models of teaching religion in schools. Polish catechetists from various academic centers (eg. Lublin, Poznań, Olsztyn) make attempts to verify the existing catechetic theories through empirical research. Significant here is the contribution of Fr. prof. Stanisław Kulpaczyński from the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin. The article focuses on methodological and substantive aspects of empirical research in the Polish catechetics. First there have been described methods, techniques and research tools. It has been shown that Polish katechetetics usually employ quantitative and qualitative methods using a questionnaire. They select different groups of respondents. Most often they conduct empirical research in schools – among young people and among catechists from different dioceses. From the merits they are interested in their issues such as catechesis in schools, the formation of catechists, religion teaching methods, giving marks on catechesis, conflict solution, cooperation with parents, parish catechesis. The results of empirical research are presented in articles and monographs as well as in doctoral dissertations. On this basis the Polish catechetists work out new catechetical solutions.Pozycja Domus ecclesiae – chrześcijańskie miejsce kultuZalewski, Dariusz (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2015)The religious experience of the ancient people was inseparably connected with a sacred space. Ancient religions were primarily religions of worship; however, the center of worship were altars and temples, it means the deity houses, in which the man met with gods. The first Christian communities met at the homes of their members. At the turn of the second and the third century, some houses were transferred to permanent Church’s disposal. These houses, called domus ecclesiae, were already formed as separate, special places, dedicated to Christian prayer meetings. They did not differ in their outside appearance from other houses; however, the interior was adapted to the needs of worship. Due to the existing for the first three centuries prohibition of the Christian religion throughout the Roman Empire, church houses were destroyed by the authorities. The oldest domus ecclesiae, which was preserved in a good condition by chance, is a Christian home in Dura-Europos. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that it is the oldest outdoor example of an early Christian architecture with the partially preserved paintings.Pozycja Human Good, Virtues and Practice: Macintyre’s Account of a Thomistic-Aristotelian Practical RationalitySagut, Joel C. (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2015)The article is an attempt to articulate MacIntyre’s characterization of the Thomistic-Aristotelian moral theory, which he defends as being a superior account of moral philosophy. MacIntyre argues that we could not possibly come up with a neutral moral standard to guide our actions, that is, that our practical decisions and actions are largely influenced by our adherence to a particular tradition, and that our moral choices are always a product of our upbringing that has oriented us towards a particular understanding of the good. He then takes upon himself the task of articulating the core of a Thomistic-Aristotelian tradition, particularly its understanding of the human good, with the hope of showing the superiority of its narrative over its rivals. Moreover, this article argues that given MacIntyre’s emphasis on Thomistic-Aristotelian theory, moral philosophy could not and should not ignore the contribution of moral formation as an important component of moral philosophy, which should be concerned not only with the search for the legitimate foundations of moral theories, but also with an account of how ordinary people actually make their moral choices.Pozycja Kształtowanie się stroju zakonnego w początkach monastycyzmu (III-IV w.) Na obszarze basenu Morza Śródziemnego. Recepcja form ubiorów świeckich. Cz. IŁukawska, Małgorzata (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2015)The article contains a brief presentation of the development of monastic clothing forms in the eastern monasticism (IIIth -VIth centuries). The analysis is based on the early Christian literature which constitutes the basis for the reconstruction of the garment. It also indicates its origins . The form of the habit derives from widely used repertoire of secular clothing. The texts of first monastic rule of St. Pachomius and the ascetic writings included in the dissertation have been supplemented with iconographic material that illustrates the process of adaptation of secular forms of clothing to the requirements of monastic life as well as its transformation stages. The analysis embraces women’s and men’s clothing together with certain aspects of the symbolism of habit.Pozycja W obronie cywilizacji łacińskiej (zachodniej)Brzuzy, Władysław (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2015)The author's aim of the analysis presented in the article is an attempt of answering the question: are we able to protect and save Latin civilization? His considerations are based mainly on theories of Feliks Koneczny and Henri Massis but also other philosophers, who agree that we should protect Christian values, are mentioned. The author notices that Islamic State is a real danger to biological and cultural existence of western Europe. He also points that we should protect our own civilization from the external threat – especially evoking last occurrences in Paris or Middle East, because they clearly show that strives between civilizations might affect the armed conflicts. The article reveals that protecting Latin civilization is a real challenge for contemporary western society as it is facing permanent attacks from extraneous civilizations. The author points that as a consequence we might suffer from debasement of morals and losing our own unique identity.Pozycja Troska o czystość wiary w rodzinie i wspólnotach eklezjalnych na podstawie pism św. Grzegorza z NazjanzuStrękowski, Stanisław (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2015)St. Gregory of Nazianzus was born in a Christian family wherein he received a Christian education together with his humanities and theology. After the Council of Nicaea (325 A.D.) and that of Constantinople (380 A.D.), the faith in the Triune God was a pillar siblings. Also, thanks to the care of his parents, he obtained a thorough education in of Christian doctrine, which resulted in the care of passing it on in the ecclesial communities of the fourth century. Pastors of the Church in Cappadocia and Asia Minor took care of the correct formation of the faithful who were entrusted to them, and combat any heterodox ideas which were proclaimed in many circles.Pozycja Rodzina – jej funkcje i zagrożenia. Studium na przykładzie województwa warmińsko-mazurskiegoNogowski, Jacek Marek (Wydawnictwo Diecezjalne Adalbertinum, 2015)The family as the smallest social entity underlies each society and fulfils three basic functions: procreative, educational and economic. Among others, deteriorating economic conditions, i.e. high unemployment rate, low salary, increase of both running and educational costs are the main problems that face contemporary families. Expansion of pathological phenomena e.g. alcoholism, drug addiction, violence within the family, and crime can lead to the breakdown of the family. Other threats to the family persistence are disintegration of an extended family, lowering number of children per family.Pozycja Wasyl Haniewicz, Tragedia syberyjskiego Białegostoku, przeł. A.
