There are some references to the famous Delphic inscription „Know thyself” (gnothi sauton) in the Hexaemeron (IX 6; VI 1) and the Homilia in illud: Attende tibi ipsi by St. Basil of Caesarea. In the Homilia in illud: Attende tibi ipsi St. Basil accepts the Philo’s and Clement of Alexandria’s opinion that the Septuagint proseche seauto („Attend to yourself”) and the Hellenie gnothi sauton („Know thyself”) are the same. According to St. Basil, influenced by the Alcibiades I, „yourself” means „a soul” as an opposite to a body and its environment. St. Basil interprets the Delphic maxim in the following meanings: (1) „Turn to yourself”, (2) „Know God from yourself”, (3) „Take care of your soul”, (4) „Control yourself”, and (5) „Remember you are a human”. His interpretation is influenced by the many philosophical writings, especially the Platonie dialogues (the Charmides, the Alcibiades I), the Stromata of Clement of Alexandria, and the Origen’s In Canticum canticorum.

Although St. Basil did not live 50 years, the topic of the old age appears in his works quite often. On the other hand, it is clear that Basil does not discuss this issue in one par­ticular work or in the longer argumentation. The fragmentary statements about old age can be found in almost all his works, but most of them can be found in the correspondence of Basil. In this paper we present the most important ad the most interesting aspect of teach­ing of Basil the Great. As these certificates show that the bishop of Caesarea looked at the old age maturely, rationally estimated passage of time, which very often makes a man different. He experienced it, for example as a spiritual and physical suffering, which often were connected with his person. He saw a lot of aspect of the old age, especially its advan­tages – spiritual maturity and wisdom. What is more, he pointed also to passage of time, which leads a man to eternity, which should be prepared to, regardless how old he is. In his opinion fear is not seen opinions of St. Basil present really Christian way of thinking, well-balanced and calm.

Monasticism movement appeared in Cappadocia very early. Its turbulent beginnings should be combined with the figure of Eustatius of Sebasty. The "golden period", however, falls on the activities of the great Cappadocian Fathers, especially Basil the Great. Based on his ascetic writings, the principles governing this form of Christian life will be analyzed.

According to St. Basil the human condition and the State of nature are always the same. The histories of the mankind and natural world are closely connected, because of his conception of the nature, conceived as the whole of which a man is a part. St. Basil basing himself on the Scriptures divides the word history into three stages: 1) the Paradise age, 2) the times after the Fali, and 3) eschatological timeless future.

We can distinguish two essential approaches to the issue of monastic poverty in the teaching of St Basil: a critical anti-Eustachian and a positive, unpolemical attitude. He pointed out his critical approach to main points of the doctrine introduced by Eustachius i.e.: the refusal of marriage and condemnation of the possession of any property, even in order to use it for charity purposes. It is clearly visible in his late writings – Letters, Moralia. St. Basile proved, in these writings, the necessity of the use of properties, from a biblical and ecclesiastical point of view because – for example to pay taxes. The positive approach which accepted voluntary poverty is clearly visible in his Moralia, Greater Asketikon and Lesser Asketikon. The bishop of Caesarea considered voluntary poverty as the mean to achieve a state of the unity of Christian life. The only Christian purpose is to give glory to the Lord and salvation.

Bazyli i Grzegorz krytykowali dialektykę, uważając, że próbuje ona „zawłaszczyć” dla siebie prawdy, które mogą być poznane tylko poprzez Objawienie. Nie znaczy to jednak, że obaj nie korzystali tak z naturalnych, jak i nadprzyrodzonych źródeł wiedzy o Bogu. W konsekwencji rozwinęli naturalną teologię i świadomie używali argumentów opartych na poznaniu zmysłowym, ludzkiej logice, tradycji filozoficznej, a zwłaszcza prawdach powszechnie przyjętych. Choć Bazyli i Grzegorz z pogardą odnosili się do dialektyki, a nawet filozofii, to w praktyce wykorzystywali wszystkie dostępne narzędzia, aby dotrzeć do prawdy. Uprzywilejowane miejsce zajmowały oczywiście Pismo Święte i Tradycja, ale nie deprecjonowali takich źródeł poznania jak ludzkie zmysły, rozum i powszechne pojęcia.

Basil and Gregory criticized dialectics on the grounds that it tries to usurp the truths that could only be known through Revelation. Nevertheless, the Church Fathers developed natural theology in which they deliberately used arguments based on sensual cognition, human logic or philosophical tradition, and especially on common notions. Although their terminology is often inconsistent and they use technical terms interchangeably, the context provides us with clear ideas of their theses. We should admit that as, far as dialectics and philosophy were concerned, the orthodox authors despite many reservations used all possible methods to reach the truth. They favoured the Scripture and the Tradition, but also respected such sources as sensual perception, human logic or common notions and preconceptions.

The article is an examination of Basil’s teaching about faith and its impor­tance in his large correspondence. The bishop of Caesarea describes faith as the acceptance of the Gospel, the conviction of the truth of the message, a confession of one’s belief in the Trinity. The Cappadocian emphasizes faith as an accep­tance and conviction of the truth which comes from the inspired Scriptures and the teaching of the Nicaea. The confession of faith formulated by the Council of Nicaea constituted the essence of the truth of the Christian faith. The bishop of Caesarea indicates the importance of the baptismal formula for the formula­tion of the true Christian doctrine. During the baptismal rite the baptizand makes their confession of faith and is thus admitted into the community of the faithful. Basil’s teaching of initiation into the Christian mistery is dominated by his use of the word mean the apostolic doctrines which constitute what the „Great Church” taught and believed. The Cappadocian points to the danger of false and heretical assemblies (parasynagogues) and of the false teachers of the faith. It is presented as a way of knowing God. There is also one important emphasis in Basil’s thought which especially characterizes his view of the human steps in the concrete realiza­tion of it: the knowledge of God and faith in Him is manifested in love to God and one’s neighbor.

W artykule porównano teksty Apologii Eunomiusza i traktatu Adversus Eu-nomium Bazylego Wielkiego. W rezultacie wykazano, że traktat Bazylego to ty­powe refutatio, w którym autor punkt po punkcie odpiera argumenty przeciwnika, a w swych odniesieniach jest, jak na zwyczaje antyczne, niezwykle dokładny. Bazyli systematycznie cytuje mniej więcej jedną trzecią tekstu Apologii, a fakt pominięcia niektórych rozdziałów da się uzasadnić poprzez strukturę dzieła Eunomiusza lub kontekst historyczny. Wyjątek stanowią rozdziały 21-24, w których Eunomiusz analizuje problematykę substancji i działania. Wydaje się, że Bazyli celowo omija trudny dla niego temat, z którym jeszcze nie jest w stanie się zmierzyć.

This article presents a comparative analysis of Eunomius’ Liber Apologetius and Basil of Cesarea’s Adversus Eunomium. As a result, we can discover that Basil wrote his treatise as a typical refutation and is quite precise when refer­ring to Eunomius. Despite some omissions that can be explained basing on the structure of The Eunomian work or historical context, we can find one important omission which is strongly connected with one of the most important topics of the anti-Eunomian polemic. Although Basil pretends to comment Eunomius’ Liber Apologeticus systematically, he deliberately skips one of the most important ele­ments of his adversary’s teaching.

The letters of the Cappadocian Fathers serve as part of the evidence that in the early Church correspondence of its leaders played an essential role in ensuring its proper functioning. Among the addresses of the epistles of Basil the Great, Gregory of Nazianzus and Gregory of Nyssa we find a few women. They came from diverse backgrounds. Some of them devoted their lives to the service of God, others were lay people. This article seeks to present a part of the bishops’ corres­pondence and answer questions concerning its female audience. The letters were divided into three groups: 1) consolatory ones; 2) parenetic ones; 3) and the rest of them, that because of their thematic variety were grouped together.
