Auditus fidei is an inseparable part of the study of dogmatic theology, focused on the historical process of the transferring of the annunciation of faith. What is specifically, however, the history of this historical exploration? The present article attempts to answer this question at least partially. Its aim is to present a particular historical event in the development of so-called historical, or positive theology in the hermeneutics of mystery. Using the examples of treatises by magisters Richard and Hugh of St. Victor, the article demonstrates how these hermeneutics were cultivated in the twelfth century Parisian abbey. It focuses on exploring three parts of auditus fidei, recognized by contemporary dogmatic theology, and tries to outline its traces, the development of its concept and interrelationships between them in the teaching of these two significant representatives of the Saint-Victorian school. The research also focuses on certain concrete problems and questions connected to the main theme, discussed in the works of the Czech theologian, C. V. Pospíšil.
