Marriage is an important event in the life of engaged couple as well as the whole community of believers. The preparation for marriage requires that the couple should be introduced into the Catholic ecclesial teaching about the rights and duties which result from contracted marriage. The article presents the issue of preparation for marriage; the stages according to the Apostolic Exhortation Familiaris Consortio. The study includes the following issues: the preparation stage; the need of preparation to marriage; stages and content of the preparation; people responsible for the preparation; permission to celebrate marriage of baptized individuals who are not sufficiently prepared.

The reading of the didactic works dedicated to the feminine public at the end of the Middle Ages teaches us that their authors treat the marriage as a natural vocation of the woman and although they are not indifferent to the religious dimension of the conjugal reality, it is the terrestrial and profane aspect that interests them more. So the works such as the Livre pour l'enseignement de ses filles of Geoffroy de La Tour Landry, Mesnagier de Paris and even Le Livre des Trois Vertus of Christine de Pizan appear in the form of textbooks in which the women can find any sort of rules, even practical advice on how to become a good wife and how to make a successful marriage. Among these books concerning the conjugal savoirfaire, the treaty of Philippe de Mézières Le Livre de la Vertu du sacrament de marriage et reconfort des dames mariés (1385-1389) occupies a very particular place. At first because the material sphere and everyday life of the life of a couple interest him only marginally, then because he turns all his attention to the essence of the marriage. Through his return in the spiritual conceptions of the marriage Philippe de Mézières anticipates his time. By putting in the heart of the marriage the love, by putting the love as the foundation of the marital union, he contributes to the advent of the modern couple which will triumph only after the Council of Thirty.

The paper deals with the problem of realization of the principle of equality of denominational groups as far as the possibility of applying the denominational form of contracting the civil marriage. The author presents the essence of the principle of equality of denominational groups, as well as the existing solutions which consist in its restricting through authorizing only some denominational groups to apply the indicated form of contracting a marriage, that is those which possess the legal status regulated through individual acts. In order to eliminate this discriminating practice, the author proposes, in her paper, changes de lege ferenda aimed at authorizing also other legally active denominational communities to proceed using the denominational form while contracting civil marriages.

The article reflects the argumentation, content and presentation of the positions of Christian ethics, or more precisely, the Magisterium's positions on marriage and family, in the context of societal trends, challenges and confrontations. The article primarily emphasizes the conciliar paradigm with its openness to dialogue with the world and perceptiveness of the needs of contemporary man. This paradigm introduced a new concept of the marriage and family. The article attempts to demonstrate that Pope Francis has updated the conciliar paradigm. The Pope holds the position that the Church should be close to people in their life situations and that the message of the Church should be comprehensible and attainable.

The main goal of this paper is to present the philosophical (i.e. attained by the light of natural reason) explanation of the marital relationship according to the Polish philosopher Karol Wojtyła. In our research, our attention was focused mainly on his book Love and Responsibility; the early philosophical work of a young, 37 year old Professor of Philosophy at the Catholic University in Lublin, Poland. In his writings, Karol Wojtyła—the future Pope John Paul II—presents marriage as a monogamous, indissoluble relationship between a man and a woman, which grows out of mutual love for the purpose of procreation. Such a relationship is ruled by the „personalistic norm" which says that a person can never, under any circumstances, be a mere object of enjoyment for another person, but can only be the object (co-object) of love. Love is a self-giving for the good of one's counterpart, so Marriage as a personalistic unity persists as long as these persons are alive. Because love is fecund from its very essence, so it is fruitful from its nature. Thus, procreation belongs to the principle ends of marriage. Such an attitude—as K. Wojtyła proves—is opposed to the utilitarian point of view of man and Marriage. According to the utilitarian conception, a person can be used as a means for achieving the highest good, i.e., pleasure.

Same-sex marriage, which became effective in Germany on October 1, 2017, has met with mixed reactions within German Catholic Church. Does the new law violate the concept of marriage as is established in the constitution and in cultural tradition? The procreative aspect of marriage, which is emphasized by the German bishops, is undoubtedly socially beneficial. The magisterial critique of same-sex marriage tends to depict this institution as a social threat. If, however, the plausibility of this position decreases since same-sex marriages neither impair existing liberties of heterosexual spouses nor prove to be socially adverse, the general rejection of the legal opening of same-sex marriage will by no means be demanded from a moral theological perspective.

The article analyses and, partly, criticises argumentation of the book Tragédie celibátu – mrtvá manželka ("Tragedy of celibacy—dead wife") by L. P. Baláž and M. Lajcha (Kľak, 2018). It observes the rhetorical and apologetical nature of the book and reveals its clericalist implications and presents different views on how to deal with this issue. It remarks that the refusal of marriage and the preference for sexual asceticism was not only a contribution of Platonic and Stoic philosophy but also merit and a genuine feature of early Christianity itself. It points out that the concept of longing to become a priest, which according to the authors should entitle a married man to get the ordination, has a clericalist backdrop. Finally, it questions the way how the authors tried to make the abolishing of mandatory celibacy a part of the conservative agenda by references to the very rigid features of Catholic conjugal ethics and the common gender stereotypes.

Both the Roman Catholic Church and the canonical Orthodox Churches, or Churches associated with the Union of Utrecht, include marriage in the seven sacraments. Nevertheless, there is no agreement between them regarding the minister of the sacrament, the possibility of a second marriage after divorce or clergy marriage. In recent years, tensions in individual ecclesial communities have also been exacerbated by canonical legalization of same-sex relationships. This issue concerns, in particular, the Churches whose bishops are part of the International Conference of Old Catholic Bishops. In the West European Old Catholic Churches of the Union of Utrecht there is full agreement that homosexual orientation is one of the variants of human nature. Old Catholics Theologians believe that the condemnation of homosexuality which we find in Scripture resulted from the state of knowledge at the time and related cultural connotations. They point out that modern science shows this phenomenon in a completely different perspective, based on the results of scientific research unknown to either the Biblical tradition or the Tradition of the early Church. The consequence of this was the opening of the debate on their nature and on the possibility of blessing same-sex relationships.

The article deals with the issue of the necessity of the interpreter's participation in getting married in Polish law, taking into account the secular and religious form. The participation of an interpreter in the procedure of getting married is necessary in both forms; however, the regulations of this issue are slightly different in both legal systems, secular and ecclesiastical. The article is an in-depth scientific reflection on the issue and an attempt to argue for the unification of legal requirements in this regard.

In the Bamali community of Cameroon, just as in other parts of Africa, polygamy was an important aspect of indigenous culture which was widely acceptable and practiced by many. Monogamy was regarded as a form of weakness given the fact that the might and pride of a man was measured in accordance with the number wives and children he had. This paper seeks to examine the perception of polygamy and its defies in the Bamali community. It highlights the basis of polygamy among the Bamali people, and also explores the impact of polygamous marriages on the family. The paper sustains the argument that, despite the fact that polygamy was widely accepted and practiced by many, it had devastating effects on family happiness. In order to achieve this goal, the paper made appeal to some selected primary and secondary sources and the con-clusions were drawn after a qualitative historical analysis. The paper concludes by stating that, polygamy was an inherent cultural practice of the Bamali people which resisted cultural extinction and has moved into a revolutionary dimension to trans-cend the various historical periods. Polygamy, Marriage, Bamali, Relationship, Family W społeczności Bamali w Kamerunie, podobnie jak w innych częściach Afryki, poligamia była ważnym aspektem kultury ojczystej, który był powszechnie akceptowany i praktykowany przez wielu. Monogamia była uważana za formę słabości, biorąc pod uwagę fakt, że siłę i dumę mężczyzny mierzono według liczby żon i dzieci, które miał. Ten artykuł ma na celu zbadanie postrzegania poligamii i jej przeciwności w społeczności Bamali. Podkreśla pod-stawy poligamii wśród ludu Bamali, a także bada wpływ poligamicznych małżeństw na rodzinę. Artykuł podtrzymuje argument, że pomimo faktu, że poligamia była powszechnie akceptowana i praktykowana przez wielu, miała niszczący wpływ na szczęście rodzinne. Aby osiągnąć ten cel, w artykule odwołano się do wybranych źródeł pierwotnych i wtórnych, a wnioski wyciągnięto po jakościowej analizie historycznej. Artykuł kończy się stwierdzeniem, że poligamia była nieodłączną praktyką kulturową ludu Bamali, który oparł się kulturowemu wymarciu i przeszedł w wymiar rewolucyjny, aby pokazać różne okresy historyczne.

The conciliar formula irrevocabilis consensus personalis is not a synonym of a "contract" – it is a synonym of a covenant. The attempt of a verification of this hypothesis, undertaken in this study, is based on two elementary methodological assumptions: (1) the heritage of a Christian personalistic thought – adopted and integrated in the theological anthropology of the constitution Gaudium et spes – is at the basis of the Catholic Church matrimonial law system; (2) the adoption of the mentioned formula significantly increases the outlook in the science of canon law on the system change of the paradigm: on a turn away from the contractualistic formulas toward personalistic depictions. A precise description of the covenant of matrimonial love in the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches – with an optimal connection of natural and transcendent aspects – allowed for: (1) revealing the relation of Christ – Church, rooted in God’s Caritas, as an icon of matrimonial communion realized in Christian matrimony; (2) revealing the Trinitarian foundations of holy matrimony.

The article studies the concept of marriage according to Summa on Marriage by Raymond of Penyafort of the first half of the thirteen century. It analyzes and comments on the definition of marriage, biblical institution of marriage, reasons for the institution of marriage, the role of consent, the effects and the goods of marriage and the form of a lawful or clandestine marriage. It concludes that canon law on marriage in this Summa promoted monogamous marriage which is contracted by free consent of a man and a woman and aims at establishing a family.

In the times of cultural changes, the liberalization of social norms and the increasing emancipation of women, we can observe the growing popularity of cohabitation. More and more people choose informal relationship instead of marriage. It is often believed that the form of relationship is meaningless. However, researches show that there are significant differences between marriage and cohabitation. These differences we can observe not only in functioning of couples and individuals, but also the whole society. The aim of this article is to present and analyze the differences between formal and informal relationships, especially differences connected with economic aspects, such as the level of wealth, the tendency to save, the amount of transfers from the family of origin, or the functioning on the labor market. The results of pilot studies on these aspects have been also presented. Preliminary results of analyzes allow to conclude a higher economic effectiveness of marriage and its more positive impact on economic processes.

In the opinion of some sociologists contemporary American society is best defined by the term “single nation”. Over the years, the number of marriages has drastically decreased, while the percentage of children who were born in unmarried relationships (civil union or domestic partnership) has increased. Only 30% of Americans born between 1980–2000 say that marriage and family are one of the most important issues in life. Young people say they are too young, independent and busy to marry. Considering these statistic data, the Catholic Church in the United States is taking steps to encourage US citizens to enter into sacramental marriages. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops talks about marriage as a “language of benefit”, referring to religious, health, and mental issues. What’s more, the American bishops claim that it is up to all US citizens to care for young people to marry. In their arguments, bishops refer to economic issues, which are affected by the growing number of single mothers.

W opinii socjologów współczesne społeczeństwo amerykańskie najlepiej określa pojęcie „państwo niezamężnych” („single nation”). Z upływem lat drastycznie spada liczba zawieranych małżeństw, rośnie natomiast odsetek dzieci, które przyszły na świat w związkach pozamałżeńskich. Raptem 30% Amerykanów urodzonych pomiędzy rokiem 1980–2000 uznaje zawarcie małżeństwa i założenie rodziny za jedną z najważniejszych kwestii w życiu. Wśród młodych ludzi dominuje przekonanie, iż są zbyt młodzi, niezależni i zapracowani, by wstępować w związek małżeński. W obliczu twardych danych statystycznych Kościół katolicki w Stanach Zjednoczonych podejmuje działania mające na celu zachęcenie obywateli USA do zawierania małżeństw sakramentalnych. Konferencja Amerykańskich Biskupów Katolickich o małżeństwie mówi tzw. „językiem korzyści”, odwołując się do kwestii religijnych, zdrowotnych oraz psychicznych. Co więcej, biskupi amerykańscy twierdzą, iż troska o to, by młodzi ludzie wstępowali w związki małżeńskie leży w gestii wszystkich obywateli. W swojej argumentacji biskupi odwołują się do kwestii gospodarczych i ekonomicznych, na które ma wpływ rosnąca liczba matek samotnie wychowujących dzieci.

The submitted article brings closer the theme of marital love as seen by Cyprian Norwid (1821 – 1883), which occupied a significant part of the author’s poetic horizon. He greatly appreciated the feeling between a man and a woman, seeing in it beauty and a divine spark. At the same time, he pointed out the rather common frivolous treatment of love, the immaturity of individuals and the materialistic approach to relationships, which seriously hinder, andsometimes even prevent, the formation of a mature marriage. Only the rejection of all conventions connected with this human covenant and solid preparation to enter a new stage oflife, is a chance to build a bond that will not stand the test of time and circumstances. Norwid linked marital love closely to the sacrament. In his conviction, God Himself enters betweenthe spouses and becomes the third person in this love dialogue of life. The sacrament also sets the husband and wife a goal to aim at. The writer completely disapproved of the practice of divorce, although he was aware of the difficulties connected with the common life of spouses. He believed that every crisis can be overcome and contribute to building a full marital happiness. Norwid’s particularly valuable – because pioneering – observations concern the mutual sanctification of the spouses and their building of a communion of persons.
PL
Przedłożony artykuł przybliża tematykę miłości małżeńskiej w ujęciu Cypriana Norwida (1821 – 1883), która zajmowała znaczną część jego horyzontu poetyckiego. Doceniał on bardzo uczucie między mężczyzną i kobietą, widząc w nim piękno i Bożą iskrę. Wskazywał jednocześnie na dość powszechne niepoważne traktowanie miłości, niedojrzałość osób i materialistyczne podejście do związku, które poważnie utrudniają, a czasami wręcz uniemożliwiają, powstanie dojrzałego małżeństwa. Tylko odrzucenie wszystkich konwenansów związanych z tym ludzkim przymierzem i solidne przygotowanie się do wejścia w nowy etap życia, jest szansą na zbudowanie więzi, która nie podda się próbie czasu i okoliczności. Miłość małżeńską Norwid łączył ściśle z sakramentem. W jego przekonaniu, sam Bóg wchodzi między małżonków i staje się trzecią osobą w tym miłosnym dialogu życia. Sakrament wyznacza mężowi i żonie także cel, do którego mają zmierzać. Pisarz zupełnie nie godził się na praktykę rozwodów, choć zdawał sobie sprawę z trudności związanych ze wspólnym życiem małżonków. Uważał, że każdy kryzys może zostać pokonany i przysłużyć się do zbudowania pełni małżeńskiego szczęścia. Szczególnie cenne – bo prekursorskie – spostrzeżenia Norwida dotyczą wzajemnego uświęcania się oblubieńców oraz budowania przez nich komunii osób.
