The paper, when it takes into account Mary Daly’s pivotal study Beyond God the Father, deals with the problem of the relation between faith and reason as well as belief and unbelief, as outlined, among others, in Joseph Ratzinger’s Introduction to Christianity. Basically, it is a defence of the orthodox meaning of theology on logical rather than dogmatic grounds. The re-formulation of the concept of theology that the so-called feminist theology advances too often depends on the misrepresentation of what is meant by faith and what is meant by reason in theological discourse. In consequence, the very term „theology” becomes inaccurate and its use – unjustified.

Odnosząc się do istotnej dla tak zwanej teologii feministycznej pozycji Mary Daly, Beyond God the Father, artykuł bada związki między wiarą i rozumem oraz wiarą i niewiarą, między innymi w oparciu o dzieło Josepha Ratzingera Wprowadzenie w chrześcijaństwo. Zasadniczo, argument stanowi obronę tradycyjnego rozumienia teologii, odwołując się przy tym do zasad logiki bardziej niż dogmatyki. Przeformułowanie pojęcia teologii, jakie dokonuje się w teologii feministycznej, unieważnia sens innych, kluczowych dla teologii pojęć, takich jak wspomniane wiara i rozum. W rezultacie, termin „teologia” traci swój sens i staje się bezużyteczny.

In this article I consider a certain characteristic of our times as a “secular age,” namely, a series of complications in our understanding of transgression. Transgression implies the presence of some rules and laws which can be violated. As long as the rules and laws are perceived as right, as a way of protecting the values which would otherwise perish, transgression appears to be a wrong thing to do, a misdeed, a criminal act. Needless to say, the very conceptual structure makes sense only provided that the distinctions between right and wrong, good and evil, lawful and lawless are not arbitrary, which, in turn, depends on the presence of the concept of truth. In the secular age, though, the concept of truth becomes not only difficult to handle, since it is incompatible with the modern frame of mind, but also assumes some derogatory connotations, up to the point when to insist on the distinction between (truly) right and (truly) wrong is in itself a wrong thing to do. That is the state of contemporary societies which G. K. Chesterton examines in his work Heretics. The effect of Chesterton’s reflections is a new map of right/wrong, good/evil, lawless/lawful permutations. After Chesterton, I comment on the character of a new heretic, one for whom transgression, understood as the attack on buried-for-long orthodoxy, is too easy a thing to do. To illustrate the mentioned changes of perspective, I refer to an exemplary criminal figure of the West, that is, the biblical serpent, and its criticism.

В статье я пытаюсь уловить определенную литературную и культурную черту феномена Зузанны Гинчанки, польской поэтессы еврейского происхождения. Я имею в виду 1) биографические элементы, 2) критические труды, где эти элементы обрабатываются и интерпретируются, а также 3) избранные поэтические произведения. Лейтмотивом моего размышления является понятие открытости (в смысле неопределенности), которое связываю с интеллектуальным климатом постмодернизма, но при этом отслеживаю его различные формы в жизни Гинчанки, в критических трудах ей посвященных и в ее поэзии.

The article is an attempt to grasp a feature of the literary and cultural phenomenon of Zuzanna Ginczanka, a Ukrainian-born Polish poetess of the Jewish origin. It refers to 1) biographical elements, 2) their mediation in chosen critical works, as well as 3) the samples of Ginczanka’s literary output. The key concept for my investigations is openness (understood mainly as indeterminacy of meaning), which I associate with the intellectual climate of postmodernism, to trace, however, the modalities and variations of openness in Ginczanka’s life, criticism and poetry.

Marta Zając Meatology The starting point of these refeclions is the concept of the ,,metaphysics of meat". (developed in an essay by Jolanta Brach-Czaina). Metaphysics of meal draws attention to a certain law of man's existence, which says once you eat, you are also eaten, and thus defines life as .,the cannibals' feast": the process of exchange when body is flesh as much as meat. One can assume then the affinity between eating and other forms of relating ourselves to others, like the act of love and the act of speech (verbal exchange), the affinity whose visible sign is the mouth with its double function of production and consumption. The article points to the traps of individualism, which excludes one from the processes of exchange and, literally or metaphsically. makes one keep one's mouth shut. In meatlogy. (the form of logos whose ground is the metaphysics of meat) the words we utter are treated only as food for other words. their value is purely nutritional. The literary examples for the, failed ol' successful, acts of consumption as an expression of love range from the Marquis de Sade to Lewis Carroll and Patrick Suskind.

What feminist theology is (not) like? The paper reflects on so-called feminist theology. First it deals with its reception by classical theology and reports a form of openness to new perspectives the latter (besides some objections) voices. Then I address the inevitable tension that develops between the two interpretative paradigms should the concepts of “man” and “God” be brought into play. The case study for that part is a self-portrait of a feminist theologian who calls herself a resident alien. What the analysis ultimately shows is a radical difference between the resident alien of postmodernism and the biblical outsider: the prophet; in particular, the way the difference in question resides in a given concept of language. My claim is that the constructionist theories of meaning postmodernism spreads postulate not so much the arbitrariness of sense as the false alternative between biblical God and the truth of the particular.
