Komunikacja interpersonalna i wzmacnianie logosfery jako priorytety dydaktyczno-katechetyczne Wyższego Seminarium Duchownego w perspektywie presji społeczeństwa informacyjnego, medialnego, sieciowego

Abstract

In 1985 John Paul II drew our attention to the power of revolution that was happening at the time and emphasized that ‘it is the revolution that brings the change of systems and transmission techniques but it embraces the whole world of culture, society, and the human spirituality. Consequently, it cannot apply its own internal rules but has to derive its criteria from the deepest human truth and the truth about the man created in resemblance to God.’ (John Paul II, 1985). Such statement sounds even more powerful today in the context of growing impact of media and, at the same time unproportionally quieter but growing at greater rate – the voice calling for more human societies and the defense of the most important of human values. The media constitute the power of self exciting technological development, more and more promotion campaigns, possibilities, more and more, and we more and more often do not manage to follow the novelties and sometimes we do not even want to. The youngest are very determined to keep up with the development and for them staying in touch on Facebook is more important than real contact. And we know that real face to face contact, a real look with deep and sensitive care of a parent about a child, a counselor about their ward, a man about a man cannot be replaced with any, even the latest and the most sophisticated electronic medium. Therefore, I would like in my short speech to invite you to taking greater care about the real interpersonal communication which is the key to all human and interpersonal processes. At the same time, I would like to emphasize the power of a live and beautiful speech which is vital in human and interpersonal communication.
