Król Saul jako przykład osoby chorej psychicznie w Starym Testamencie

Author(s): Klaudia Rosińska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 23/2016

Mental illnesses are an enormous problem in the contemporary world. An increasing number of people suffer with psychiatric disorders and almost every family has members with some such difficulty. This dissertation presents an analysis of the mental state of Saul, the first king of Israel. Saul’s case is certainly complex, and simultaneously provides a greater certainty of the first king of Israel’s psychological problems. Three illnesses appear to be most likely in his case: schizophrenia, a delusional syndrome, or bipolar disorder. Three criteria have been adopted to make a better identification of the illness that affected Saul. The first criterion is related to the subject’s age at the onset of symptoms. This criterion eliminated schizophrenia as the first symptoms of Saul’s illness appeared after he was thirty, which does not usually occur in cases of schizophrenia. The second criterion pertains to the type of delusions experienced by Saul. They were paranoid, relatively logical and without hallucinations. This type of delusion attests to the likelihood that Saul suffered from paranoid syndrome. The final criterion is related to the changeability of the king’s behaviour. Consequently, it revealed that the changes were not significant enough to be identified as a bipolar affective disorder. Since a direct confrontation with the patients and observation of their behaviour is impossible, these considerations are only an analysis of symptoms described in the Bible. It is unknown how accurately they were described by the author, and thus a diagnosis cannot be certain in the end. The case of Saul also reveals that rejection and isolation are at the foundation of psychological illnesses. The risk of mental illnesses significantly increases in the contemporary world when so many people do not feel accepted or loved.

Pozorny smutek sprawiedliwego w Księdze Mądrości

Author(s): Marcin Zieliński / Language(s): Polish Issue: 23/2016

The article analyzes the issue of the suffering of a righteous man in the part I of the Book of Wisdom. It is often treated by the exegetes as a sad reality that affects the just, yet after a careful analysis it turns out to be apparent. The text’s analysis shows that the author intentionally avoids joining suffering with life of the just, and emphasizes that a pious, virtuous life and divine providence defends the just against suffering. The only case of suffering experienced by the just (Wis 8,9) is considered as the result of mistakes of which there is no one to be free, even a sage. Suffering can be removed by enacting the instruction of wisdom, which reveals herself not as a comforter but as the one who respects and teaches. The article also suggests the influence of the stoic thoughts which portrays the just as a true sage who lives virtuously and consequently, does not suffer.

Biblijne obrazy nieba w późnej liryce Juliusza Słowackiego. Kilka uwag badawczych

Author(s): Monika Kulesza / Language(s): Polish Issue: 23/2016

This article is dedicated to the poetic images of heaven in the late poetry of Juliusz Słowacki. Until now, researchers used to relate these images and interpret them in the context of the “Genesis” philosophy of the poet. Meanwhile, it is worth noting that the late Słowacki’s lyrics, not intended for publication, show quite different pictures of heaven which seem to be similar to those in the Bible and standing somewhat in contradiction to the Genesis philosophy.

Author(s): Tadeusz Knut / Language(s): Polish Issue: 22/2015

This article contains the analysis of the word “burden” (gr. baros) in the biblical texts of the New Testament. The phrase is used in different contexts and grammatical forms.

The burden has also an eschatological meaning and is present in all works connected to the Christian faith in God, observance of the Law, defense of the faith and the apostolic mission of St. Paul. The summary also reflects on the use of this word by John Paul II in his homily in Gdansk in 1988 during the third pilgrimage to Poland.

Author(s): Janusz Lemański / Language(s): Polish Issue: 22/2015

Nacjonalizm jako skrajność narodowa w nauczaniu społecznym Kościoła

Author(s): Roman Misiak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 22/2015

The Church’s Magisterium has not commented on nationalism in a systematic and comprehensive way yet. The article brings the nodal points on this subject and describes Pope’s reactionsto the risks of extreme nationalism aberration that manifest themselves, both in attitudes and ideologies, and lead to conflicts and wars. Actually, the papal pronouncements of Pope BenedictXV and senior Benedict XVI have been put into analysis. The matrix of the analysis is particularly the knowledge of Catholic social teaching, social philosophy and political science. Social teaching of the Church, drawing arguments from natural law and Revelation, gives the prominence in the human community to nations and national values. At the same time, however, it warns against treating them as the absolute values. This basic error of extreme nationalism substantially disturbs human equality and undermines the dignity of a man, sacrificing him brutally on the altar of national interests. Extreme nationalism perceived as a total ideology that tends to become almost a religion or inhuman socio-political system is strongly condemned in the social teaching of the Church.

Caballeros de la oscuridad: la Orden del Temple en el cine de Amando de Ossorio

Author(s): Antonio Huertas Morales,María Bosch Moreno / Language(s): Spanish Issue: 2/2016

The tragic end of the Templars turned them into a myth that has left a deep mark on the contemporary narrative. Currently, seen as innocent martyrs, the Templars acquired features, as wanted San Bernardo, of celestial militia, fighting the forces of evil. However, the legends that bind tight and unorthodox beliefs have shifted even historiographical versions, and the Templars also become dark and intriguing characters. Before the massive appearance of the Templars in Spanish narrative of the end of the millennium, the Galician filmmaker Amando de Ossorio made some films about the warriors‑monks, giving them horror film features and binding them to the family of vampires, mummies and zombies. The treatment they were given by the Galician filmmaker, despite the originality and some of the literary reminiscences, is to be inserted in the continuous process of mystification of the Templars.

Przemoc, niedostrzegany grzech główny

Author(s): Małgorzata Bilska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 666/2016

Przemoc jest złem. To zdanie wygląda tak banalnie, że raczej u nikogo nie wzbudzi sprzeciwu — także, a może i zwłaszcza u katolików. Diabeł, również „diabeł od przemocy”, siedzi jednak w szczegółach. Przemoc słusznie została uznana na przełomie XX/XXI wieku za jeden z najpoważniejszych problemów społecznych. Wciąż jednak nie ma powszechnej zgody nawet co do przejawów zjawiska i jego przyczyn. Wbrew pozorom niezbyt jasny jest także stosunek Kościoła do przemocy.

Za życiem, byle konsekwentnie

Author(s): Charles C. Camosy / Language(s): Polish Issue: 666/2016

W życiu publicznym współczesnych społeczeństw narasta zapotrzebowanie na nowy rodzaj polityki. Takiej, która konsekwentnie stanie po stronie najsłabszych i najbardziej kruchych. Konsekwentnie za życiem. Konsekwentnie bez przemocy. Konsekwentnie po stronie osób marginalizowanych i pozbawionych przywilejów. Uważam, że podstawą takiej polityki powinien stać się sposób myślenia, który w USA nazywamy konsekwentną etyką życia.

W IMIĘ RODZINY I RELIGII. DYSKURS NARODOWO-RELIGIJNY DOTYCZĄCY KONWENCJI O ZAPOBIEGANIU I ZWALCZANIU PRZEMOCY WOBEC KOBIET I PRZEMOCY DOMOWEJ

Author(s): Marta Warat / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2016

This article focuses on the current wave of the cultural war in Poland which was triggered after the government’s decision to ratify the European Council Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence. It examines the conservative, nationalist-religious discourse present in two daily mainstream Polish newspapers, Gazeta Wyborcza and Rzeczpospolita. This article begins with a description of the position of the Catholic Church in Poland, its role and main discursive strategies used in the debate on the Convention. Then it underlines the significance of the nationalist-religious discourse for developing gender equality policies, focusing on an essentialist vision of feminity and masculinity, importance of the family as a private matter and an influential force and diversion from cultural and structural factors that foster violence.

Operacje korekty płci: czyn legalny czy bezprawny?

Author(s): Jerzy M. Ferenz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 6/2016

The article concerns the issues of legality or illegality of sex reassignment surgery in the light of the Polish penal law. Conducted considerations start from the reference to the phenomenon of transsexualism (including its definition and etiology), possible methods of improving the health of transsexual people and the level of their effectiveness. Taking into account the aforementioned context, there has been analysed the existence of the medical purpose of the SRS. In that context there has been analysed the possibility of finding the primary legality of SRS. Subsequently, it has been analysed whether there is a possibility to exclude criminal liability for conducting such surgeries by the way of using justification, circumstances excluding the guilt or due to negligible degree of social harm of an act. Referring to the current de lege ferenda demands, there has been proposed the solution to the problem of establishing a clear legal settlement which should take the form of justification which would re-legalise SRS. The basis for such justification would be consent, as well as the requirement to have completed the register sex change first.

Zmiana płci u dzieci jako wyzwanie dla prawa i społeczeństwa

Author(s): Błażej Kmieciak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 6/2016

Can the child change his/her gender? This question can cause a shock. Sex is very strongly associated with the development of the child. Can this development be impaired? Similar questions have become an essential element of the social and legal discussion which took place in Poland at the end of 2015. In mid-October a gender agreement act was enacted. This document – according to its authors – was supposed, in a comprehensive manner, to solve problems and difficulties experienced by transsexuals, including underage transsexuals.The issue of sex change in children met with great interest. Proponents of the law pointed out that children should have the right to “manage their own identity.” Opponents of this document also cited in their opinions the idea of children’s rights. It was emphasized that “reconciliation of the sex of the child” is the action that violates his/her dignity.The gender agreement act has not been passed into the system of Polish law. However, it has become an inspiration to pose two questions: Have there been new rights of the child in the last years? Can we – paradoxically – during the fight for rights of the child violate these rights?
