Simultaneously, the Pope outlined the main ideas of the nearing festivities : 1. focussing attention on the fact of mankind’s salvation, and 2. peace in the world. The Jubilee Year was solemnly proclaimed by the bulla „Quod nuper” (30 Jan. 1933). Besides, there appeared many other Apostolic See documents devoted to the oncoming festivities. The Jubilee was first celebrated in Rome from Easter 1933 till Pascha of the following year. Only later the Jubilee Year became extended on to the whole world (8 April 1934 — 28 April 1935). Both in the first and in the second phase of the festivities, which were celebrated it Rome itself, active participation ot the Polish Church could be observed. This manifested itself in the organization of special services, processions, celebrations and pilgrimages which proceeded not only to the major sanctuaries of the country, but also to Palestine and Rome. It is noteworthy that, apart from these external manifestations, numerous confessions, Holy Communions and concentration on spiritual life took place. The Jubilee Year was a great event which mobilized all Christianity and brought a certain revival to religious life. These celebrations also emphasised the current problems of the epoch and above all the question of world peace.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/jubileuszjubileelata jubileuszowejubilee yearslata święteholy yearsXX w.KościółChurchKościół katolickiCatholic ChurchPolskaPolandRzymRomeceremoniesuroczystościuroczystości religijnereligious ceremoniesWielki Jubileusz OdkupieniaGreat Redemption JubileeProgram i obchody Wielkiego Jubileuszu Odkupienia w 1933 rokuProgram and celebrations of the Great Redemption Jubilee of 1933Article
