Exploring the “Cozy Cabal of Academics, Dealers and Collectors” through the Schøyen Collection
2020
In the wake of the trade in ancient materials, several ethical and political issues arise that merit concern: The decimation of the cultural heritage of war-torn countries, proliferation of corruption, ideological connotations of orientalism, financial support of terrorism, and participation in networks involved in money laundering, weapon sales, human trafficking and drugs. Moreover, trafficking and trading also have a harmful effect on the fabric of academia itself. This study uses open sources to track the history of the private Schø

Human Sociability in Antonio Montecatini's (1537–99) Commentary on Aristotle's Politics
2021
The present article delves into the history of political philosophy by discussing human sociability in Antonio Montecatini's (1537–99) commentary on Aristotle's Politics. The focus is on a philosophical analysis of three interrelated ideas that Montecatini discusses: (1) Aristotle's dictum that human beings are political animals by nature; (2) naturalness of the household; and (3) the nature and origin of political communities. Montecatini's views are briefly related to those of John Case (ca. 1546–1600), and they are also contextualized within the late medieval commentary tradition on the Politics, but the main aim is to clarify Montecatini's philosophical position and examine the ways in …

Teologia chińska. Szansa czy zagrożenie?
2022
Chinese theology is a challenge for Christianity. On the one hand, it presents new opportunities, and on the other, it prompts the redefinition of many terms, dogmas, and ways of thinking. Under the influence of Chinese theology, classical theology may become sinicized, i.e. influenced by the Chinese way of perceiving the world, man and the upernatural. Without knowing the philosophy, religion, art and language of the Chinese, Chinese theology may cause fear and apprehension. This can only be overcome by learning about the Asian world without fear.
Niepokojący wschód azjatyckiej teologii. Wprowadzenie do studium
2021
Teologia w Polsce nie dysponuje tłumaczeniami ani opracowaniami w zakresie teologii i duchowości azjatyckiej. W dodatku na płaszczyźnie pastoralnej kontakt z Dalekim Wschodem nacechowany jest lękiem, wynikającym z braku wiedzy. Instytut badań nad Teologią i Duchowością Dalekiego Wschodu jest próbą odpowiedzi na zapotrzebowanie integracji środowiska naukowego, zajmującego się teologią i duchowością Dalekiego Wschodu. Niniejsza publikacja jest zaproszeniem do współpracy.
Choan Seng Song - teologia z łona Azji
2016
Choan Seng Song (1929–) jest prezbiteriańskim teologiem, postulującym, aby teologia otworzyła się na „trzecie oko” – symbol azjatyckiego uprawiania mądrości, z jej rodzimą hermeneutyką, kategoriami, wrażliwością i symboliką. Dualizm, wprowadzony przez tradycyjną teologię zachodnią, polegający na radykalnym oddzieleniu stworzenia i zbawienia, powoduje uznanie religii niechrześcijańskich za bezwartościowe. Bóg jest zbawczo obecny w swoim stworzeniu, a wcielenie (enfleshment) Boga w Chrystusie doprowadziło całe stworzenie do zjednoczenia z Bogiem. Bóg jest obecny we wszystkich kulturach implicite, a w Chrystusie objawił się explicite. Celem misji nie jest uczynienie ze wszystkich chrześcijan, …
Religious spaces as continually evolving modernities: Forms of encounter with modernity in Christian Orthodoxy and Islam
2022
The present study deals with the encounter with modernity in two neighbouring religious spaces: Christian Orthodoxy and Islam. Relying on Eisenstadt’s theory about multiple modernities and on its further developments by Thomas Mergel and Kristina Stoeckl, Islamic and Christian-Orthodox dynamics in relation to the challenges of modernity are examined under two aspects: first, the decoupling between religion and culture as elaborated by Olivier Roy, and second, the development of modernist and fundamentalist currents as phenomena of modernity. The study contributes to the sketching of the profile of Islamic and the Christian-Orthodox modernities, pointing both to some of the commonalities and…
Astroteoloģiski prātojumi bioloģiskā universa hipotēzes un ārpuszemes dzīvības meklējumu perspektīvā
Raksts pamatā ir veltīts zinātnieku atziņām par inteliģentas ārpuszemes dzīvības iespējamību, izdarot no šādas hipotēzes tālākus konstruktīvus teoloģiskus secinājumus. Attiecīgi rakstam ir divas galvenās daļas – zinātniski-teorētiskā un konstruktīvi-teoloģiskā, un tas pieder zinātnes un reliģijas dialoga jomai. Dzīvība rakstā definēta mūsdienu bioloģijas izpratnē. Tiek apskatīti dzīvības rašanās scenāriji, ieskaitot spontānās rašanās un „panspermijas” alternatīvas, kā arī tiek apsvērtas „bioloģiskā determinisma” un no tā izrietošā „bioloģiskā universa” hipotēzes, kuru patiesuma gadījumā universā jābūt civilizācijām un būtnēm, kas attīstījušās nesalīdzināmi augstāk nekā cilvēki. Raksta teolo…
WHY IS IT NOT SO EASY FOR A PRESENT-DAY PHYSICIST TO BE GENUINELY A CHRISTIAN?
2021
A short description of the relationship between Physics, Philosophy and Theology is: Physics neglects or passes by Natural Realism, which is the origin of Philosophy. In turn, Natural Realism is backed up by Judeo-Christian revelation. Therefore, Physics neglects or passes by Theology. That relationship between Physics and Theology is widely used as a background for exercising an intense pressure on Theology. The defence of Theology should begin by pointing out certain shortcomings of Physics and formulating a philosophical control of these shortcomings. This is tantamount to turning Physics instead of Theology into a “site under construction”. Only a “controlled” Physics and Theology are a…
