This article is concerned with visualization in early Modern culture. it is based on the theoretical approach to the image and its function in Western christian culture from the early Middle Ages onwards. the article demonstrates how this understanding is reflected chiefly in devotional lite rature in the form of prayers and meditation. using period texts it demonstrates their potential for visualization, which serves not only to illustrate, but also, indeed mainly, to form the mnememes, which have other important uses in religion. the article also demonstrates the links between visual and literary documents, of which the theory of perception and memory have been its shared starting points since classical Antiquity, linked by an early Modern understanding of the image in the roman catholic religion. the article offers new perspectives on early Modern documents of literature, reveals certain mechanisms concealed within them, and calls for their interdisciplinary study.

The study deals with the so far unexplored manuscript of a prayer called Molitva o izbavljenii otъ blǫda, which is preserved in the manuscript collection from the Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery (White Lake St. Cyril’s Monastery). The text of the prayer is preserved in the manuscript KB 12/1089 (National Library of Russia, Saint-Petersburg) from the third quarter of the 16th century. The close relationship of known manuscript versions of the prayer contained in the manuscripts of Czech Church Slavonic Forty Gospel Homilies by Pope Gregory the Great (Besědy na evangelije) and in the ancient Euchologium Sinaiticum strongly reinforces the hypothesis about the Great Moravian origin of their common archetype. The aim of the study is to reveal the relationship of the newly registered text KB 12/1089 to familiar texts. An integral part of the study also deals with an edition of the prayer (KB 12/1089) and its critical apparatus based on the text of all known (edited) manuscripts of the prayer.

This article aims to reconstruct individual female biography as a way of manifesting late-modern spirituality. The case of contemporary myth creation is an example showing how individual religious experience in a specific social context helps build biographic cohesion and how it transforms into metaphorical narration. The authors used the data collected in Rybno in Mazovia as material for analysis. They analyse the biography of one of the inhabitants of Rybno, a person who is extremely strongly emotionally associated with the local monastic congregation which aims to spread the cult of Divine Mercy. The authors based their analysis on two sources, i.e. a free interview conducted with the woman and the texts of the prayers to the “Most Holy Head of Jesus”.

The Medieval Prayer of Confession of Sins (with the incipit Domine Deus meus omnipotens, ego humiliter te adoro) exists in Latin and Church Slavonic versions. It was written on the British Isles under Irish influence. The oldest Latin manuscript versions come from the ninth century and the prayer was known in continental Europe, especially in places connected with activities of Irish missionaries. The Church Slavonic translation most probably originated in the tenth or eleventh centuries in Bohemia and then was transfered to the East Slavonic area. Textological and philological arguments for this hypothesis are presented in the article together with characterization of the newly discovered versions of the prayer (both Latin and Church Slavonic). Especially, the second known Church Slavonic version recorded in the manuscript of the Solovetsky Monastery from the late fifteen century brings new evidence on the textual character of the prayer and modifications based on copying of the text.

The purpose of this paper is to unscramble the Christian elements in Revelation by Mu Dan, a modern Chinese poet. Mu Dan borrowed them from the Holy Bible and Western modernist literature, which made his poetry unique. The books of Psalms Ecclesiastes and Job from the Holy Bible motivated him to use prayer as a literature form in Revelation. Mu Dan's religious poems have enriched our thinking about human civilization and the meaning of life. They also provide a special perspective to understand the modern Chinese intellectuals interested in Christian belief and the difficulties they have encountered.

The reflections undertaken in the present paper take their origin from the issue of the divorce of faith and life, so well visible in the contemporary world, which attracted the attention of the Vatican Council II in Gaudium et spes (nr 43). With a view to deepening the issue, certain features characteristic of the present world’s spiritual condition will be discussed. being taken into consideration and described as being of crucial importance for the Church’s evangelization work, which always has to take notice of the culture context in which the work is accomplished. It is through taking notice of that context that the Vatican Council’s communion theology was born, which is undoubtedly an answer to the requirements of the contemporary evangelisation. The theology calls for further materialisation, particularly in the existential dimension. Accordingly, the paper draws attention to the possibility of a further development of the teaching of the Council, taking into consideration the relational character of the Christian religion. It demonstrates that this relational character can be existentially updated by fulfilling three pious acts: those of fast, alms, and prayer. While shaping the Christian spirituality, these acts can concurrently become a convincing sign of the authenticity of Christianity as well as a way of rebuilding man’s relation with the world of matter, with other people, and with God Himself.

The role of the Holy Spirit is much more in the centre of spirituality of the Eastern Church than is the case in the Western Church. Nevertheless, to say that Orthodox thought has finally and fully developed systematic theology of the Holy Spirit, would be excessive. The science of the Holy Spirit is based primarily on the experience of the community (liturgy) and on individual experience (personal prayer). It is these two aspects that the article is devoted to. At the same time it attempts to present Orthodox Church’s teaching of the Holy Spirit not only on the basis of dogmatic formulation, but principally through the experience of the mystics, which found resonance in the practice and theory of hesychasm. Especially helpful in this approach is the Orthodox liturgy, rich in inexhaustible theological perspective. Hesychia is also linked to the contemplation of icons. The combination of these different threads leads to deep spiritual experiences. However, it was the Church where a clear revelation of the Holy Spirit succeeded, which is particularly emphasized by St. Gregory of Nazianzus, the Theologian: “The Old Testament proclaimed the Father clearly, but the Son more obscurely. The New Testament revealed the Son and gave us a glimpse of the divinity of the Spirit. Now the Spirit dwells among us and grants us a clearer vision of himself”.
