This paper aims to show the reasons why Alfred Loisy’s idea to develop an apology for Christianity was unsuccessful and led to his transition to the modernist position. It explores theological and fundamental issues underlying his ambitious program. Firstly, it discusses the concept of modernism, having in mind that Loisy himself opposed the accusations of his following modernism. Secondly, it synthetically presents the context and characteristics of Loisy’s works to properly understand his idea of Christian apologetics. The subsequent section analyses Loisy’s most important assumptions and the way he formulated his apologia, focusing on the issue of historical criticism and his application of John Henry Newman’s idea of development to the history of religion. These analyses allow us to conclude that by applying the historical-critical method, Loisy did not avoid adapting incorrect philosophical assumptions and improper application of Newman’s development of Christian doctrine to his reflections on the history of religion.

Uno dei principi fondamentali della riforma liturgica promossa dal Concilio Vaticano II fu quello della partecipazione attiva dei fedeli alla celebrazione. Secondo il dettato della Costituzione liturgica Sacrosanctum Concilium questa partecipazione avviene per mezzo dei riti e delle preghiere (cf. SC 48). Ciò ricorda che l’azione rituale si serve di un doppio tipo di linguaggio: quello verbale e quello non verbale. Lo studio della liturgia, di conseguenza, non può essere ridotto alla sola ricerca riguardante i testi usati nella celebrazione bensì, deve comprendere anche lo studio dei riti. Il presente contributo, senza alcuna pretesa di essere esaustivo, intende ad offre alcuni spunti per una lettura ermeneutica della ritualità cristiana, in base all’esempio concreto dell’uso dell’incenso nella liturgia.

One of the fundamental principles of the liturgical reform promoted by the Second Vat-ican Council was that of the active participation of the faithful in the celebration. According to the liturgical constitution Sacrosanctum Concilium, this participation takes place through the rites and prayers (cf. SC 48). This reminds us that ritual action makes use of a double type of language: both the verbal and the non-verbal one. The study of the liturgy, therefore, cannot be reduced to research only on the texts used in the celebration, but must also include the study of the rites. The present contribution, without any pretension of being exhaustive, intends to offer some hints for a hermeneutic reading of Christian rituality, on the basis of the concrete example of the use of incense in the liturgy.

Jedną z podstawowych zasad reformy liturgicznej promowanej przez Sobór Watykański II był czynny udział wiernych w celebracji. Zgodnie z konstytucją liturgiczną Sacrosanctum Concilium, uczestnictwo takie dokonuje się poprzez obrzędy i modlitwy (por. KL 48). Przypomina nam to, że działanie rytualne posługuje się podwójnym rodzajem języka: werbalnym i niewerbalnym. Studiowanie liturgii nie może zatem ograniczać się wyłącznie do badania tekstów używanych podczas celebracji, ale musi obejmować także studium obrzędów. Niniejsze opracowanie, nie pretendujące w żadnej mierze do bycia wyczerpującym, ma na celu zaproponowanie pewnych kryteriów hermeneutycznej lektury chrześcijańskiej rytualności, w oparciu o konkretny przykład użycia kadzidła w liturgii.

The mysterious term „marzeah” occurs twice in the Old Testament. In the Book of Amos it stands for an aristocratic feast, whereas in the Book of Jeremiah we read about „the house of marzeah” meaning a place used for mourning for the dead. The texts from Ugarit provide us with more information. Thorough analysis of the texts implies that „marzeah” was an institution assembling people representing upper social classes. At least one of its aims was cult of the dead. It clearly resembles mesopotamian „kipsu” – a ritual feast where people called their ancestors to „eat bread and drink water”. In the Bible it is a clear example of the trait of pagan beginnings of Israel, whose elements in their fragmentary form lasted until VI century B.C.

The term Hellenization refers to the spread of Greek culture and its adoption by non-Greek peoples, in the era that begins with the conquests of Alexander the Great (i.e. from the second half of the 4th century BC onwards). The term is defined likewise or similarly in many modern dictionaries and encyclopedias of antiquity. The term became problematic when, in the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, historians of religion associated it with certain kinds of value judgements and sometimes even ideology. Therefore, some contemporary scholars propose abandoning the concept of ‘Hellenization’ in the study of antiquity, or to replace it with others that would describe the phenomena occurring in the Hellenistic era neutrally. This article shall present an overview of selected positions with regard to the notion of ‘Hellenization’ itself, and attempt to answer the question whether this ideologically loaded term can be avoided in contemporary research on the Hellenistic Age

PL

Pojęcie hellenizacji odnosi się do rozprzestrzeniania się greckiej kultury i przejmowania jej przez ludy niebędące Grekami w czasach, które zapoczątkowują podboje Aleksandra Wielkiego (czyli od drugiej połowy IV w. p.n.e.). W taki lub podobny sposób termin ten zostaje zdefiniowany w wielu współczesnych słownikach i encyklopediach dotyczących starożytności. Pojęcie to stało się problematyczne, gdy w drugiej połowie XIX w. i pierwszej połowie XX w. historycy religii powiązali je z pewnego rodzaju sądami wartościującymi, a niekiedy nawet ideologicznymi. Dlatego też niektórzy współcześni uczeni proponują porzucenie pojęcia „hellenizacja” w badaniach nad antykiem bądź zastąpienie go innymi, które w sposób neutralny opisywałyby zjawiska zachodzące w epoce hellenistycznej. W niniejszym artykule przedstawiono przegląd wybranych stanowisk w odniesieniu do samego pojęcia „hellenizacja”, a także podjęto próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy we współczesnych badaniach dotyczących epoki hellenistycznej można uniknąć tego obciążonego ideologicznie terminu.
