Ratzinger once said about the life and theological thought ol Hans Urs von Balthasar that they are placed „between music and literature” One may certainly treat this saying as an ars theologiae metaphor, i.e. this dimension of theology which is of necessity (conslitutively) akin to aesthetics, if theology - following von Balthasar - is to be the word about the Most Wonderful. In this sense delight is one of the elements of theological methodology and method. For delight is the most profound human reactions to the Beauty of God. Being open to beauty and a concern about a pure delight inside theological thought and word can be a remedy for various diseases of the time and hurting of theology itself. These intuitions are confirmed by John Paul II’s Letter to Artists of 4th April 1999.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/estetykateologiasztukaestetyka teologicznateologia jako sztukamuzykaliteraturakulturaprawdaaestheticstheologyarttheological aestheticstheology as artmusicliteratureculturetruthArticle
