The persons most interested in elevating Wojciech (Adalbert), a martyr for the faith, to the rank of a 'saint' included Duke Boleslaw the Brave, who planned to create a metropolitan organisation of the Polish Church, and Gaudenty, a participant of his brother's missionary expedition, who was with all certainty foreseen from the very onset to become the 'archbishop of St. Wojciech' entitled to the 'church in Gniezno'. In his capacity as a monk of the monastery on the Aventine, Gaudenty (who was consequently just as well-known among the papal and monastic circles of Rome as his brother) acted as the spokesman of Duke Boleslaw. It was in the Aventine monastery that the first 'Life of St. Wojciech', inspired by Pope Sylvester II and Emperor Otto III, was written by Jan Canaparius with Gaudenty's co-operation, and envisaged as important testimony of the martyrdom of St. Wojciech. The papal edict (litterae) which confirmed the act of the canonisation has not survived, but researchers agree that it was issued prior to 2 December 992. Gaudenty was mentioned among the witnesses of an imperial document addressed to the Farfa monastery as 'archiepiscopus s. Adalberti martyris' ; he also accompanied Emperor Otto on a pilgrimage to Gniezno, which was also an official, Church expedition. Here the Emperor headed a council convened at the beginning of March 1000, which ultimately established an archbishopric and appointed Gaudenty to the office of the metropolitan bishop. Although no written record of the canonisation of St. Wojciech has survived, the act was indirectly confirmed by an analogous document issued by Pope John XVIII who, upon the request of Abbot Antoni of the hermitage in Kazimierz near Szamotuly, recommended to 'respect and venerate' the five Martyr Brothers, murdered there on 10 November 1003; his admonition was reflected in numerous Church calendars in various bishoprics, not only Polish but also foreign. The fact that Pope Sylvester II similarly advised to 'respect and venerate' the bishop-martyr throughout the whole universal Church should not give rise to any doubts.

The study offers the profile of life and work of M.J. Metzger, priest and martyr at the time of National Socialism in Germany and it presents his personal involvement in the pacifistic movement and in its national and transnational structures. Based on his articles and lectures the article is able to see his tangible encouraging approach and perspective of his theology of peace. Its fundamental elements are constituted by: international reconciliation as a principle of international peace; the foundation of peace is truth, justice, love; upholding of human rights; implementation of Christian politics regarding the overcoming of any nationalism; future federation of European states; peace as a category of the kingdom of God; shared responsibility of all Christians in social and moral questions; the criticism of failure to respond according to the spirit of Gospel; refusing of war and arm race; the peace as a problem of education. The second part of the study is concerned with the enforcement of his attitudes at the time of National Socialism and in consequence his persecution as ideological archenemy of regime, his imprisonment and execution. In the end we offer the ecclesiological and theological valuation of personage, in the last analysis as a significant figure and relevant theologian of the first half of the twentieth century, credited with rebuilding the Church, first of all on the field of ecumenism and practical life of faith of people moving toward a vision of the Church of The Second Vatican Council.

Public theology, which first appeared in the United States of America at the end of the 20th century, presents a certain challenge also for the liturgy. In this article the author addresses the 'diaconisation' of the liturgy, pointing to the reasons, which authorize for the use in the liturgy aspects of public theology, which emphasize the characteristic elements of the liturgy, as a rich cultural inspiration for society in an extremely direct perspective for progression, recalling to mind the richness of the Eucharistic mystery by which ars celebrandi and ars praesidendi should increase sensitivity and better motivate the participants in the liturgy to a greater love for the community.
