Contemporary research on remembrance yields more and more women’s concentration camp testimonies and evidence of their unique character. The names quoted in these materials include Liana Millu (1914-2005), an Italian women of Jewish descent, an Auschwitz-Birkenau and Ravensbrück prisoner. Her work proves that the experience of trauma, though unimaginable, is utterable. Millu resorts to literary fiction to outline life stories of Birkenau women, their typical problems, ways of dealing with tham, as well as the survival strategies thay employed. Liana Millu’s testimony is an unusual attempt to show how women experienced the trauma of the camp.

The beginning of the 21st century is stigmatized by the atmosphere of the crisis. We can also observe that the number of members of the Christian Churches in Europe is still decrease. Theology tries on different ways to understand a process of the secularization of the modern and postmodern societies. The article describes very shortly a recent situation in the Europe (monetary crisis, terrorism, radical right-wing movement) and tries to answer the question if the Christian theology and the Faith have a proper proposition for the modern man. During discussion with the philosophical theory of German Humanist Ernst Bloch (concrete Utopia), the Author shows a perspective of hope as a relevant message to the recent situation. The Theology of hope introduced by Jürgen Moltmann is the best exemplification of the dialog of the Christian heritage with the modern research in the humanistic studies. The problem of the Salvation of the human being as well as the all Creation is still present in the new form of the theological dogmatic. The main purpose of the Christianity and its theology is to give people the message of hope in the World of hopeless.

The author’s views are founded on the thesis that the Prologue to theFourth Gospel is based on an early Christian hymn from the second part ofthe 1st century, originating in the diaspora, interwoven with additions thatconnect it with the whole Gospel.

The theological meaning of the word ‘ēdût, which is used in the priestly narrative about the construction of the Tent of Meeting, has long been a topic of debate. A synchronic analysis allows us to see in it “two stone tablets”, a kind of artifact which Moses puts into the Ark and which is not to be seen again. It symbolizes and brings to mind all the words of God passed on by Moses at Sinai. On other hand, diachronic analysis allows us to think that the idea of the Ark did not belong to the priestly strata of PG but rather was added later (PS). It has also been suggested that in P originally the Ark was called the Ark of Meeting and then the Ark of Testimony (the connection between j‘d and ‘dwt → ‘d). In its original form, the narrative about the Ark might have suggested the traditional role of the object: it symbolized the presence of God and was understood as the footstool of His invisible throne, where the treaty was kept. Later, the concept of the place of meeting with God was transferred to the Ark-cover (kappōret), and ‘ēdût (Testimony) became the symbol of the covenant stipulations. In the final phase it came to mean the two stone tablets with the Decalogue.

Reading the First Epistle of John, one is led to inquire about the nature of the testimony that the author of the letter offers to the Christian community in crisis. Is this a testimony based on an inculcated doctrine or does it originate in the historical experience of the author? This is, in essence, a question regarding the authority of the teaching presented in the letter. The vocabulary employed in the letter, particularly in its prologue, permits us to define the testimony under consideration as a theological testimony. It does not consist of a faithful recalling of memories of past historical events only. Indeed, the author of 1 John does not refer directly to any words or deeds of an earthly Jesus. Rather, the testimony consists in treating the historical facts as a “source of the present time.” This testimony enjoys strong authority because it arises from two sources: from an account of the eye-witness of the paschal life of Jesus Christ and also from reflection upon the existential outcomes of this historical and salvific event in relation to the current needs of the community.

Lektura Pierwszego Listu św. Jana rodzi pytanie o naturę świadectwa, które autor pisma składa wobec wspólnoty chrześcijańskiej przeżywającej wewnętrzny kryzys. Czy jest to świadectwo oparte na wyuczonej doktrynie, czy też wyrasta z doświadczenia historycznego autora? Jest to w gruncie rzeczy pytanie o autorytet prezentowanej nauki. Słownictwo zastosowane zwłaszcza w Prologu Listu pozwala określić go jako świadectwo teologiczne. Nie polega ono jedynie na wiernym przywoływaniu z pamięci przeszłych wydarzeń historycznych, gdyż w 1 J autor nie odnosi się wprost do słów i czynów ziemskiego Jezusa. Jest ono raczej traktowaniem zaistniałych faktów jako „źródła teraźniejszości”. Świadectwo to posiada silny autorytet, ponieważ wyrasta z dwóch źródeł: relacji naocznego świadka paschalnego życia Jezusa Chrystusa oraz refleksji nad egzystencjalnymi konsekwencjami tego historiozbawczego wydarzenia w obliczu aktualnych potrzeb wspólnoty.

Because of the richness of Lukan theology regarding witness, the author was unable to cover all of its aspects. Thus the study touches only upon its major threads. Besides the obvious issues of the apostles role as witnesses, the content of their witnessing, and its recipients – the study presents some other personalities involved in transmitting the Good News of God’s salvation to humanity. Indeed, the greatest stress is placed on the testimony of God himself. Despite being a constant Mystery for humankind, He never ceases being involved in their history and witnessing to his salvific plans. Although there are only a few texts within Acts that connect the persons of the Trinity to witnessing, one should consider them as fundamental to a full Lukan theology of witness.

Bogactwo Łukaszowej teologii na temat świadectwa nie pozwoliło autorowi artykułu na objęcie wszystkich jej aspektów. Studium podjęło jedynie główne wątki, które do niej należą. Jednakże, obok oczywistych kwestii, takich jak świadectwo apostołów, jego treść i odbiorcy, artykuł zawiera jeszcze charakterystykę innych osób uczestniczących w przekazywaniu ludziom Dobrej Nowiny o zbawieniu. Motywem najmocniej zaakcentowanym w artykule jest świadectwo samego Boga. Pozostając dla człowieka nieustającą tajemnicą, nigdy nie przestaje On uczestniczyć w jego historii i dawać świadectwa na temat swoich zbawczych planów. Mimo że liczba tekstów w Dziejach Apostolskich łączących poszczególne Osoby Trójcy Świętej ze świadectwem jest niewielka, należy je uznać za fundamentalne dla Łukaszowej teologii świadectwa.

Jean-Guilhem Xerri, a biologist, skilled and attentive to the holistic conception of man, has been noticed in the French Catholic milieu by his recent publication: À quoi sert un chrétien? The book provides an analysis of the state of man today and proposes to begin a pastoral program of the Christian faith credibility in the world today. The diagnosis of the technological, economic and ideological development of transhumanism reveals in the end multiple human sufferings. However, the negative observation of human is considered as an opportunity to the encounter and a testimony. Our reading advocates the practical vision of the testimony of the faith of this author, for it is the Christian of the land of this world, but it also indicates its limits. The proposed apostolate does not enter sufficiently into the analysis of the crisis in terms of the positive elements of the modern world evolution. Xerri does not sufficiently suggest how to articulate modern man aspirations of liberation and secularization with the proclamation of the Gospel as well as he does not really specifies the new issues of the ethical sense in politics that Christians have the right to express in their witness.

Jean-Guilhem Xerri, médecin biologiste compétent, et attentif à la conception holiste de l’homme, a été remarqué dans le milieu catholique français par sa récente publication: À quoi sert un chrétien? Le livre dresse une analyse de l’état de l’homme d’aujourd’hui, et propose de lancer un programme pastoral concernant la crédibilisation de la foi chrétienne dans notre monde. Le diagnostic du développement technologique, économique et idéologique du transhumanisme révèle finalement de multiples souffrances humaines. Toutefois, la situation douloureuse de l’homme peut être une occasion de rencontrer et de témoigner. Nous avons apprécié l’aspect pragmatique du témoignage de foi de l’auteur, chrétien engagé en ce monde. Sa réflexion toutefois présente des limites. Il ne met pas suffisamment en valeur, dans la situation actuelle de crise, les éléments positifs de l’évolution du monde moderne ni ne propose suffisamment de voies permettant d’articuler les aspirations de libération, de sécularisation de l’homme moderne avec l’annonce de l’Évangile. Et il ne précise pas suffisamment les enjeux nouveaux du sens éthique dans le domaine de la politique que les chrétiens ont le droit de rendre explicites dans leur témoignage.

The present article deals with the studies of testimony in the Gospel of Luke, focusing on the testimony of the disciples of Jesus. In the introduction the author outlines the theme of testimony in the double work of Luke-Acts as compared to other New Testament writings, and explains the meaning of giving testimony and being a witness according to the Third Evangelist. The exegetical study of texts, describing the missionary activity of the disciples in Luke shows that they were acting as witnesses in several stages. In the first stage the Twelve are witnesses sent by Jesus to proclaim the kingdom of God in Galilee. The second stage is the testimony of the seventy-two disciples sent on a mission to proclaim the kingdom of God in Samaria and Galilee. The radicalism of the requirements resembles the radicalism of Jesus’ life, and yields the special character of the disciples’ testimony. The object and the quality of the disciples’ testimony are changed after the Easter events. The disciples have to reckon with persecution, which turned into an opportunity to give testimony inspired by the Holy Spirit. The missionary commandment given by the Risen Lord, being simultaneously a testimony commandment, is preceded by the empowerment of the disciples with supernatural gifts from the Risen Lord, and conditioned by acceptance of the Holy Spirit. The object of disciples’ testimony after Easter will be the passion, the death, and above all the resurrection of Christ based on the prophecies of the Old Testament, and conversion with forgiveness of sins in His name. The testimony of the apostolic community of disciples would be taken from Palestine to all nations on Earth.

This master thesis focuses on the vision the Poles had of France and French folk from 1812 and 1864. As seen in the work, those two dates coincide with landmarks in Polish history. The conclusion shows that stereotypes are numerous and very often contradictory, yet, it is obvious that France and French are occupying a significant place in polish literary life at that time. The study includes text analysis (mostly in Polish), contemporary testimonies, as well as few pictures analysis. In a first part, Poland between French influence and interference, we will see what images of France and French, the Poles built on the basis of linguistic borrowings and the adoption of a certain style of life « à la française ». The second part, Napoléon I in Polish imaginary: « Prometeusz czy Atylla ? » deals with the perception the Poles have of Bonaparte, probably the most famous and emblematic French personality at that time. The third part, the image of France and French seen through the Polish emigration (Wielka Emigracja) is about the common destiny of the Polish and the French nation throughout the XIXth century.
