Catechetical institutions were established even in ancient Christianity. They were so-called theological schools, also called - among others by Eusebius - catechetical schools. They were founded by Christian thinkers, philosophers, who in this way wanted to make a contribution to evangelization. We know that such a school in Rome in the middle of the 2nd century was run by St Justin. However, the schools in Alexandria and the Palestinian Caesarea, and especially Origen's educational and catechetical work in them, are best known. Both the Alexandrian and Caesarean schools raise discussions about their character among scholars. At present the opinion is dominant that not so much a catechetical school expressis verbis should be seen in them, but rather a missionary school for young people of pagan origin sympathizing with Christianity, where a kind of introduction to Christian religion was taught, and the teaching started from the common foundation of Greek philosophy. As such, it taught theological truths, preparing the pupils to pre-baptismal catechesis.

The article shows the picture of mathematics and logic that can be found in the encyclopaedias published in the Polish interwar period. The most comprehensive three popular en¬cyclopaedias at that time considered in the article are as follows: Ilustrowana encyklopedia by Trzaska, Evert and Michalski, Encyklopedia powszechna Ultima Thule, and Wielka ilustrowana encyklopedia powszechna published by the Gutenberg publishing house. We also explore one thematic encyclopaedia Świat i życie: zarys encyklopedyczny współczesnej wiedzy i kultury, as well as a quite specific publication – not an encyclopaedia in itself but one of encyclopaedic character – prepared by outstanding Polish mathematicians, i.e. Poradnik dla samouków (volumes 1 and 3 of the 2nd series were devoted to mathematics and logic). The view of mathematics and logic in encyclopaedias is important because of an intensive progress in mathematics and mathematical logic in the interwar Poland. Analysis of entries dedicated to these fields of knowledge shows that both mathematics and logic were presented in a reliable and modern way with consideration for the state of research at that time. Also new, developing mathematical disciplines were taken into account, as, for example, set theory, topology, or the rudiments of mathematics. With too much modesty sometimes, the input of Polish scientists in this development was stressed. Furthermore, the article analyses what topics, questions, and forms did not find their reflection in the encyclopaedias, as well as the reasons why it so happened.

This paper illustrates and critically evaluates Jan Franciszek Drewnowski’s philosophical views on mathematics and logic. It is based on four sources. The main source is his “Zarys programu filozoficznego” (“Outline of a Philosophical Program”) (1934). Further sources include two of Drewnowski’s papers, “Stosowanie logiki symbolicznej w filozofii” (“Application of symbolic logic in philosophy”) (1965) and “Uwagi o stosowaniu logiki symbolicznej” (“Remarks on applying symbolic logic”) (1967), as well as fragments from his diary. This paper aims to show how Drewnowski understood mathematics and mathematical theories, how he conceived logic and its role in science, as well as to what extent he was familiar with contemporary achievements in mathematical logic and the foundations of mathematics and his awareness of their relevance for the philosophy of mathematics.

Praca poświęcona jest prezentacji i krytycznej ocenie poglądów filozoficznych Jana Franciszka Drewnowskiego na matematykę i logikę. Podstawą rozważań są cztery źródła. Podstawowym źródłem jest Drewnowskiego "Zarys programu filozoficznego" (1934), dalej dwa artykuły, a mianowicie "Stosowanie logiki symbolicznej w filozofii" (1965) oraz "Uwagi o stosowaniu logiki symbolicznej" (1967), w końcu fragmenty dziennika. Pokazuje się w niej, jak Drewnowski rozumiał matematykę i teorie matematyczne, jak widział logikę i jej rolę w nauce oraz na ile był zaznajomiony ze współczesnymi osiągnięciami w zakresie logiki matematycznej i podstaw matematyki oraz z ich konsekwencjami dla filozofii matematyki.

Artykuł przybliża pojmowanie katechizmu w Kościele na przestrzeni wieków. Analizie poddana jest zarówno terminologia - z rozróżnieniem pojęć: katechizm i katechizmy –jak i odpowiadające pojęciom konkretne dzieła. Autor czyni niezbędne rozróżnienia metodologiczne i etymologiczne terminów w omawianym zakresie, dokładnie dokumentując swą refleksję licznymi źródłami. Szczegółowo omówiony został katechizm-książka jako niezbędne i uprzywilejowane narzędzie religijnego wychowania – począwszy od pierwszych tekstów katechetycznych, aż po rozpoczętą w XVI wieku erę katechizmów. Artykuł zawiera odpowiedź na pytanie postawione w tytule, co ma szczególne znaczenie w kontekście obchodzonego Roku Wiary, w świętowaniu którego Katechizm Kościoła Katolickiego znalazł centralne miejsce.

catechism-book? The article is moving closer comprehending the catechism at the Church over the centuries. In it an extensive sense of the term and transformation are portrayed in understanding him. The author is also making necessary distinguishing of methodological and etymological notions in the scope discussed, precisely documenting one's reflection with numerous sources. In the article in detail a catechism was discussed as the essential and privileged tool of the religious education - starting from the first catechetical texts, until the era initiated in the 16th century and lasting until today of catechisms. Answer to a question given in the text included in the title is of special importance in the context of the Year of the Faith, into which celebration the Catechism of the Catholic Church found the central place.

L’articolo tende di migliorare la comprensione del catechismo nella Chiesa nel corso dei secoli. All’analisi è sottoposto sia terminologia - una distinzione tra i concetti di catechismo e catechismi -, che i concetti corrispondenti alle opere concrete. L’autore fa le necessarie distinzioni metodologici ed etimologici, documentandole con numerose sorgenti. È discusso in dettaglio il catechismo come uno strumento indispensabile e privilegiato per l’educazione religiosa - dai primi testi catechetici fino a, iniziata nel cinquecento, epoca di catechismi. L’articolo contiene la risposta alla domanda posta nel suo titolo, che è di particolare importanza nel contesto dell’Anno della Fede, in cui il Catechismo della Chiesa Cattolica ha trovato un posto centrale.

The paper is devoted to phenomenological ideas in conceptions of modern philosophy of mathematics. Views of Husserl, Weyl, Becker and Gödel will be discussed and analysed. The aim of the paper is to show the influence of phenomenological ideas on the philosophical conceptions concerning mathematics. We shall start by indicating the attachment of Edmund Husserl to mathematics and by presenting the main points of his philosophy of mathematics. Next, works of two philosophers who attempted to apply Husserl’s phenomenological ideas to the philosophy of mathematics, namely Hermann Weyl and Oskar Becker, will be briefly discussed. Lastly, the connections between Husserl’s ideas and the philosophy of mathematics of Kurt Gödel will be studied.
