Annotation: Málková, Eva. Church Music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Prague: Hussite Theological Faculty, Charles University, 2012. Thesis. The aim of this thesis is to introduce church music of Johann Sebastian Bach and its theological announcement. By looking up and appraising musical-theological elements at Bach's work this thesis brings near to the reader the theological, philosophical and mystic thinking of Bach. By pre-understanding and complexity of perception of Bach's church music is possible to see deep sense and aim of artist's work. In the first (theoretical) part I am engaged in systems of thinking that could Bach's church work influence. Then I am specifying the pieces that are supposed to be church music. In the second (practical) part I am looking for musical- theological elements that could Bach be influenced with. By researching of Bach's artistic style I am trying to find correlation of musical and theological contents and I am trying to point out that the message of Bach's church work is relevant.

This thesis deals with the question of evil as privatio boni according to the teachings of Augustine of Hippo and the conception of evil in the work of Carl Gustav Jung who denied this Augustine's teachings. In the thesis I analyze attitudes that adopt both thinkers to categories of good and evil in relation to impacts of their conceptions on understanding of God, self-understanding of man, of his life, death and salvation, further of the relation of God and man and the human moral responsibility before God and society. Augustine maintains that evil is an absence of good, but Jung thinks that the reality is put together from the balance of good and evil. Their attitudes I scarify with the aid of the secondary literature and the explanation of that biblical places that both thinkers refer to.

[pt] Pessoas reunidas sob uma convicção religiosa comum, para o exercício de alguma atividade cúltica, é fato recorrente nas mais diversas tradições religiosas. Para o cristianismo, entretanto, a reunião dos cristãos alcança um significado de todo particular e reveste-se de uma responsabilidade ímpar. Ela é sacramento – sinal evocativo, mas, ao mesmo tempo, experiência daquilo que é evocado – da própria salvação. Sua realidade está tão entranhada na trama do acontecimento salvífico, que não lhe cabe ser considerada à parte, nem é possível conhecê-la verdadeiramente por uma razão fechada às possibilidades da fé. Esta dissertação propõe-se, então, a perseguir e desenvolver as indicações que apontam para uma teologia da assembleia litúrgica, tendo em vista o lugar que, desde o Concílio Vaticano II, vem sendo reservado à realidade assembleal. A impostação da pesquisa é histórico-salvífica e sacramental: reunindo elementos de teologia bíblica e de eclesiologia litúrgica, conectados por incursões no quadro histórico, nosso trabalho apresenta a assembleia como lugar mistérico onde se revela e consuma o desígnio divino de salvação. Ao celebrar o memorial da Páscoa de Cristo e os outros sinais irradiadores da graça do mistério pascal, a assembleia manifesta e ratifica sua condição sacramental e sacerdotal, ministerial e participativa, contingente e teologal, histórica e escatológica. Responde, finalmente, àquele chamado trinitário soprado na criação, verbalizado no Sinai e encarnado no Cristo. / [en] People gathered under a common religious belief, to the exercise of any cultic activity, is a recurring fact in various religious traditions. For Christianity, however, the meeting of the Christians reaches a very particular significance and a special responsibility. It is the sacrament – an evocative sign and, at the same time, experience of what is evoked – of salvation. Its reality is so ingrained into the net of the salvific event, it cannot be considered separately, nor is it truly known by a reason closed to the possibilities of faith. Then, this dissertation proposes to pursue and develop the indications that point to a theology of the liturgical assembly, considering the place that has been destined to the assembleal reality. The approach of our research is historical-saving and sacramental: bringing together elements of biblical theology and liturgical ecclesiology, connected by incursions into historical context, our work shows the assembly as the mysterical place where is revealed and consummated the divine plan of salvation. Celebrating the memorial of Christ’s Passover and the other signs of the Paschal Mystery, the assembly expresses and confirms its sacramental and priestly, ministry and participative, historical and eschatological condition. Answers, finally, the Trinity’s call, blown in creation, verbalized in Sinai and embodied in Christ.

[pt] Dentre os elementos da liturgia cristã, o memorial é de grande importância, uma vez que atualiza os feitos divinos ao longo da história da salvação, trazendo para hoje sua força redentora, e abrindo aos participantes do culto uma perspectiva de futuro. O memorial está ligado estreitamente à Aliança de Deus com Abraão e sua descendência, que atinge seu ponto alto em Jesus Cristo. O passo seguinte se verifica nas realidades sacramentais, nos quais a comunidade dos fiéis experimenta a salvação. Percorrendo, portanto, a etapas da economia salvífica, pode-se perceber o memorial como continuação da obra redentora de Cristo, redentor único e universal. / [en] Among the elements of Christian liturgy, the memorial has main importance, since it actualizes the divine actions through the history of salvation, bringing today its redeeming force, and opens a perspective of future to the participants of the cult. The memorial is deeply linked to Gods alliance with Abraham and his descendants, which reaches its most important step with Jesus Christ. The next point is verified in the sacramental realities, in which the faithful community experiences salvation. Going through economy of salvation, it is possible to notice the memorial as continuing the redemption of Christ, the only universal redeemer.

[pt] O trabalho Criação e Salvação - Um estudo sobre a afirmação teológica da Criação e Salvação sob o dínamis do Espírito, segundo Pierre Gisel está dividido em quatro capítulos de modo a se perceber a seguinte estrutura metodológica. O primeiro capítulo discorre acerca dos pressupostos da problemática, enfocando o problema que envolve uma abordagem teológica, com as dificuldades de uma reflexão relacional. São tratadas as articulações que contribuíram e ainda contribuem para uma certa dissociação entre criação e salvação, no seio do cristianismo. Interpretações dualistas fizeram que o cristianismo tomasse outra direção, distanciando-se de sua base epistemológica. Com isso, passou a haver um descompromisso com a causa do humano, imagem e semelhança de Deus; e também um descompromisso com a própria criação. Quanto aos pressupostos da Modernidade, deixaram também sua marcas com o advento da Ciência Moderna, e a ênfase sobre a razão fez acontecer um desdobramento antropológico. Mas, há um resgsate teológico da criação e salvação. E, para isso os escritos de Pierre Gisel oferecem uma grande e profunda colaboração, conforme se observa no trabalho. O segundo e o terceiro capítulos formam a base da Tese, onde são analisados os fundamentos bíblicos e teológicos da criação e salvação, as dimensões teológicas resgatadoras e suas conseqüências antropológicas e cosmológicas. O segundo capítulo penetra profundamente nos textos das origens do mundo e do ser humano, com uma compreensão bíblica do Deus criador e salvador. Os horizontes de Gênesis 2.4b-3.24 mostram o Criador, a criação e o homem. Também em Gênesis 4 se observa a situação do homem diante do seu semelhante, e na seqüência a reafirmação do projeto criador de Deus no coração da história, e a cidade monolítica e totalitária com multipliação das línguas. Para compreensão do aspecto criacional faz-se ver também a releitura sacerdotal e a através da vias judaica e cristã, proporcionando à história do dogma da criação seus principais momentos subscritos no trabalho. Subscrição que tem a ver com a postura de alguns Padres da Igreja com suas reflexões inexoráveis. Quanto ao terceiro capítulo está voltado para as dimensões teológicas resgastadoras da criação e salvação. E, para compor essas ênfases a teologia de Pierre Gisel ocupou lugar indispensável. Dimensões que se apresentam como resgastadoras, com conseqüências antropológicas e cosmológicas. Afirmar o mundo como criação é viés teológico fundamental. O mundo como produto da Palavra e submetido à ordem dessa Palavra instituidora, com marca de profunda alteridade em exterioridade. Assim, a Escritura e a Tradição Teológica são configurações que indicam uma providência divina que cria, salva e governa. Dimensão que encontra no polo cristológico-pneumatológico a sua legítima identidade e sua dinâmica. A pessoa de Jesus Cristo como mediador da criação e da salvação é marcante no âmbito de um movimento dinâmico, segundo o Espírito, no sentido de haver uma realidade de Deus para fora. O Espírito subverte e leva o cristão ao exercício da memória, não apenas como uma lembrança, mas como uma recapitulação em nível sacramental. O quarto capítulo apresenta as conseqüências teológicas para se responder ao apelo da salvação cristã no espaço da criação. É uma tentativa de atualisar Pierre Gisel. Há de se ter noções essenciais para uma nova mentalidade. integradora e que se afaste de quaisquer dualismos que fazem a teologia e sua prática exorbitarem, em relação ao mundo e às pessoas. Uma mente aberta para perceber a realidade, mas considerando a obediência à Palavra como ação para uma nova configuração. Segundo a pessoa de Jesus Cristo o serviço é visto como estado de discipulado. A realidade cúltica e a vida acima da mediocriadade, culminam para o exemplo da pessoa cristã inserida na sociedade, com seu testemunho. As interpelações que a Palavra faz para hoje é que há de fato uma salvação inscrita na criação. / [en] The scientific Works Creation and Salvation-A study theological affirmation of the Creation and Salvation under the dínamis of the Spirit, according to Pierre Gisel is divided in four way chapters according the following methodological structure. The first chapter discourses concerning the presuppositions of the problem, focusing the problem that involves a theological approach, with the difficulties of a relational reflection. They are treated the articulations that contributed and they still contribute to a certain dissociation between creation and salvation, in the breast of the Christianity. Interpretations dualists did that the Christianity took another direction, going away of her base epistemologics. With that, it started there to be a engagement with the human`s cause, image and similarity of God; and also a engagement with the own creation. As for the presuppositions of the Modernity, they also left her marks with the coming of the Modern Science, and the emphasis about the reason did an anthropological unfolding to happen. But, there are a theological redemption of the creation and salvation. And, for that Pierre Gisel`s writings offer a great and deep collaboration, as it is observed in the work. The second and the third chapters form the base of the Thesis, where the biblical and theological foundations of the creation and salvation, the dimensions theological rescuers and their anthropological and cosmological consequences are analyzed. The second chapter penetrates deeply in the texts of the origins of the world and of the human being, with a biblical understanding of creative and saving God. The horizons of Genesis 2.4b-3.24 show the Creator, the creation and the human being. Also in Genesis 4 the man`s situation is observed before his fellow creature, and in the sequence the news statement of the creative project of God in the heart of the history, and the monolithic and totalitarian city with multiplication of the languages. For understanding of the aspect creator it is made to also see the priestly news reading matter and the tradition of the literature sapiencial. In sequence they are verified the news reading matters of the theme through to you saw Jewish and Christian, providing to the history of the dogma of their creation main subscript moments in the work. Subscription that has to do with the posture of some Fathers of the Church with their relentless reflections. As for the third chapter it is gone back to the dimensions theological redemption`s of the creation and salvation. And, to compose those emphases Pierre Gisel`s theology it occupied indispensable place. Dimensions that come as redemptions, with anthropological and cosmological consequences. To affirm the world as creation is fundamental theological inclination. The world as product of the Word and submitted to the order of that Word of the establish, with mark of deep reciprocity in exteriorized. Like this, the Scripture and the Theological Tradition are configurations that indicate a divine providence that it creates, it saves and it governs. Dimension that finds in the pole christologics-pneumatologics her legitimate identity and her dynamics. Jesus Christ`s person as mediator of the creation and of the salvation it is outstanding in the extent of a dynamic movement, according to the Spirit, in the sense of there being a reality of God outside. The Spirit subverts and it takes the Christian to the exercise of the memory, I don`t just eat a memory, but as a recapitulation in sacramental level. The fourth chapter presents the theological consequences to answer to the appeal of the Christian salvation in the space of the creation. It is an to update attempt Pierre Gisel. There are have essential notions for a new mentality of the integrity and that he stands back of any dualism`s that make the theology and her practice exceed, in relation to the world and to the people. An open mind to notice the reality, but considering the obedience to the Word as action for a new configuration. According to Jesus Christ`s person the service is seen as following state. The worship`s reality and the life above the mediocrity, they culminate for the Christian person`s example inserted in the society, with his testimony. The interpellations that the Word does for today are that there is a salvation in fact enrolled in the creation. A new creation because of the evil. In Christ, by the dínamis of the Spirit, a responsibility is generated with depth and comprise, according to the salvation in him. Salvation that leads to the full life and the freedom, taking the person to a historical commitment. Rich and deep consequences that they build complexity horizons, and that they make to overcome any dualism. Those horizons are distributed in three important levels: theological, cosmological and anthropological. That complexity has the power to generate a fairer society, a culture to dignify the man and glorify the Creator and a politics to be free from corruptions. / [fr] Le travail Création et Salut-Une étude concernent l`affirmation Théologique de la Création et Salut sous le dínamis de l`Esprit, selon Pierre Gisel est divisé en quatre chapitres de chemin le s`il observe la structure méthodologique suivante. Le premier chapitre discourt à propos des présuppositions du problème, en concentrant le problème qui implique une approche théologique, avec les difficultés d`une réflexion relationnel. Ils sont traités les articulations qui ont contribué et ils contribuent encore à une certaine dissociation entre création et salut, dans l`coeur du Christianisme. Les dualistes des interprétations ont fait que le Christianisme a pris une autre direction, en allant loin de son epistemologique bas. Avec cela, il a commencé à il y avoir un engagement avec la cause de l`être humain, image et ressemblance de Dieu; et aussi un engagement avec la propre création. Comme pour les présuppositions de la Modernité, ils ont aussi laissé ses marques avec la venue de la Science Moderne, et l`accentuation au sujet de la raison a fait un développement anthropologique pour se passer. Mais, il y a une rédemption théologique de la création et salut. Et, pour les écrits de ce Pierre Gisel offre une grande et profonde collaboration, comme il est observé dans le travail. La seconde et les troisièmes chapitres forment la base de la Thèse où les fondations bibliques et théologiques de la création et salut, les dimensions que les libérateurs théologiques et leurs conséquences anthropologiques et cosmologiques sont analysées. Le deuxième chapitre pénètre profondément dans les textes des origines du monde et de l`être humain, avec une compréhension biblique de créateur et Dieu économe. Les horizons de Genèse 2.4b-3.24 spectacle le Créateur, la création et l`homme. Aussi dans Genèse 4 la situation de l`homme est observée avant sa créature compagnon, et dans la séquence la déclaration des nouvelles du projet créatif de Dieu dans le coeur de l`histoire, et la ville monolithique et totalitaire avec multiplication des langues. Pour comprendre du créatrice de l`aspect il est fait pour voir aussi le tecture sacerdotal et la tradition du sapiencial de la littérature. Dans l`ordre ils sont vérifiés la connaissance du thème à travers à vous a vu juif et chrétien, en fournissant à l`histoire du dogme de leur création moments en indice principaux dans le travail. Souscription qui doit faire avec l`attitude de quelques Pères de l`Église avec leurs réflexions implacables. Comme pour le troisième chapitre il est revenu aux dimensions rédemption théologique de la création et salut. Et, composer ces accentuations la théologie de Pierre Gisel il a occupé place indispensable. Dimensions qui viennent comme rédemptions, avec les conséquences anthropologiques et cosmologiques. Affirmer le monde comme création est inclination théologique fondamentale. Le monde comme produit du Mot et a soumis à l`ordre de ce Mot de l`établissez, avec marque d`altérité profond dans extérioté. Comme ceci, l`Écriture et la Tradition Théologique sont des configurations qui indiquent une prévoyance divine qu`il crée, il sauve et il gouverne. Dimension qui trouve dans le christologique-pneumatologique de la perche son identité légitime et sa dynamique. La personne de Jésus Le Christ comme médiateur de la création et du salut c`est remarquable dans l`ampleur d`un mouvement dynamique, d`après l`Esprit, dans le sens de là qui est une réalité de Dieu à l`extérieur de. L`Esprit subvertit et il emmène le Chrétien à l`exercice de la mémoire, je ne mange pas juste une mémoire, mais comme une récapitulation dans niveau sacramentel. Le quatrième chapitre présente les conséquences théologiques pour répondre à l`appel du salut chrétien dans l`espace de la création. C`est un mettre à jour la tentative Pierre Gisel. Il doit avoir des notions essentielles pour une nouvelle mentalité de l`intégrité et qu`il recule de tout dualisme qui fait la théologie et son entraînement dépasse, par rapport au monde et aux gens. Un esprit ouvert observer la réalité, mais étant donné l`obéissance au Mot comme action pour une nouvelle configuration. D`après la personne de Jésus Le Christ le service est vu comme état suivant. La réalité de l`adoration et la vie au-dessus de la médiocrité, ils culminent pour l`exemple de la personne chrétienne inséré dans la société, avec son témoignage. Les interpellations que le Mot fait pour aujourd`hui sont qu`il y a en fait un salut enrôlé dans la création. Une nouvelle création à cause du mal. Dans Le Christ, par le dínamis de l`Esprit, une responsabilité est produite avec profondeur et est comprise, d`après le salut en lui. Salut qui mène à la vie pleine et la liberté, en emmenant la personne à un engagement historique. Rich et conséquences profondes qu`ils construisent des horizons de la complexité, et qu`ils font pour vaincre tout dualisme. Ces horizons sont répartis en trois niveaux importants: théologique, cosmologique et anthropologique. Cette complexité a le pouvoir de produire une société plus juste, une culture donner de la dignité à l`homme et glorifier le Créateur et une politique pour être libre de corruptions.

This thesis explore how the contemporary Swedish Pentecostal movement view childrens way to salvation. Is it possible to discern certain theological systems represented in the movement and has the movement’s view changed over time? The study reaches the conclusion that the view has changed and that there exists two logically opposite systems in the movement, leaving it with a theological double vision. The study explores the theological basis and the practical implications of both systems, and seek to discern what system is the prominent one. The study shows that the pelagian system stands out against the arminian system and that an ongoing theological renegotiation seems to strenghthen its position. The study also interacts briefly with two international pentecostal movements and finds the arminian theological system to dominate in that context. The result of the study raises questions whether the Swedish Pentecostal movement is aware of it’s double vision and the changes that is underway. The study ends by emphasizing the need for the Swedish Pentecostal movement to work through some main elements in its theology, in order to reach a clear view of children’s way to salvation. / Studien undersöker hur dagens svenska Pingströrelse ser på barns väg till frälsning. Vilka teologiska system finns representerade i rörelsen? Vilken teologi bygger dessa på och vilken praktik leder de till i förhållande till barnen? Studien söker också att besvara vilket teologiskt system som dominerar inom rörelsen samt om rörelsens syn på barns väg till frälsning har förändrats över tid. Studien visar att två oförenliga teologiska system, det pelagianska och det arminska, finns representerade i Pingströrelsen och att det pelagianska systemet är mest framträdande. Resultatet pekar på att den svenska Pingströrelsen har en dubbelsyn på barns väg till frälsning vilket leder till en skiftande praktik i förhållande till barnen. Studien utvidgar kort perspektivet och jämför den svenska Pingströrelsens teologi med teologin hos två internationella pingströrelser: Pentecostal World Fellowship och Assemblies of God. Studien avslutas med en uppmaning till den svenska Pingströrelsen att arbeta igenom sin teologi så att den kommer fram till en skarp syn på barns väg till frälsning och därmed till en välgrundad praktik i arbetet bland barnen.

Les influences littéraires ne sont jamais le fruit du hasard. Telle est la conviction de l'écrivain Julien Green (1900-1998) dans sa longue fréquentation du milieu littéraire du Grand Siècle représenté par Blaise Pascal et le courant port-royaliste. Dès l'adolescence, ces auteurs fascinent un être épris d'absolu qui, au fil du temps, se constitue l'une des plus importantes bibliothèques jansénistes et plonge sa plume dans une encre connue de ses devanciers. Dieu, l'homme, la vie et la mort, le péché et la grâce, ces éternels territoires de l'humanité en quête d'intelligibilité de son mystère, fécondent une œuvre littéraire inclassable où Julien Green communie aux fulgurances intellectuelles et spirituelles reçues de ses maîtres. Soutenu par un style classique et une langue épurée, l'écrivain ancre au cœur du XXe siècle le tragique d'une condition humaine, hélas confirmé par les événements contemporains. Seul le primat de l'amour sauve l'homme de ses peurs et lui apporte l'indispensable transcendance sans laquelle il court le risque de n'être qu'un automate. / Literary influences are never the result of chance. Such is the belief of the writer Julien Green (1900-1998) in his long association with the literary milieu of the Grand Siècle represented by Blaise Pascal and the Port-Royalist movement. From as early as his adolescence, these writers fascinated a young man with a passion for the absolute who, over time, puts together one of the largest Jansenist libraries and dips his pen in the very ink of his predecessors. God,man, life and death, sin and grace, these eternal realms of a humanity searching for the meaning of its mystery, enrich a body of work that is hard to classify and in which Julien Green is in communion with the intellectual and spiritual flash points received from his masters.Supported by a classical style and a refined language, this writer places the tragic dimension of the human condition in the heart of the twentieth-century, a dimension that has unfortunately been confirmed by contemporary events. Only the primacy of love saves man from his fears and provides him with the indispensable transcendence without which he risks becoming nothing more than an automaton.

A l’heure où l’Angola voit dans les ressources en matières premières et dans la démocratie des opportunités pour le développement, il est urgent de faire une halte sur la question des ressources humaines. Un vrai développement passe nécessairement par la promotion de l’homme et de sa culture habité par la dialectique de la vie et de la mort. Notre recherche sur "L’exclusion culturelle et le salut en Jésus-Christ dans le contexte actuel de l’Angola" prend l’homme dans sa condition culturelle et religieuse. Ainsi, face à l’exclusion comme déni de l’humanité de l’autre et du salut promis à tout homme, nous proposons l’inclusion comme puissance salvifique posée par le Messie Jésus et annoncée dans l’Évangile, inclusion à réaliser sur tous les modes : politique, social, religieux et culturel. En proposant l’inclusion comme paradigme du salut, nous soulignons la mission de l’Église qui est essentiellement témoignage actif de Jésus-Christ dont la pro-existence révèle le visage de l’amour inclusif de Dieu compris comme miséricorde et don total de vie. / At a time when Angola looks into the raw material resources and democracy as the opportunities for development, it is urgent to pause on the question of human resources. A true development necessarily means the promotion of the human person and its lived culture through the dialectics of life and death. Our research on "Cultural Exclusion and Salvation in Jesus Christ in the present context of Angola" takes man in his cultural and religious conditions. So, facing exclusion as a denial of the humaneness of the other and the salvation promised to all men, we propose an inclusion as a salvific force laid down by Jesus the Messiah and as announced in the Gospels, the inclusion to realise in all modes : political, social, religious and cultural. In proposing inclusion as a paradigm of salvation, we emphasize on the mission of the Church which is essentially an active witness of Jesus Christ of which the pro-existence reveals the face of inclusive love of God understood as the mercy and a total gift of life.

We consider the precepts laid down in Council of Trent and their influence in the process of Portuguese colonization, and remember that this period is marked by the ideas of the Renaissance and Enlightenment movements. By monitoring the administrative and pastoral concerns of the bishops, both in Portugal and in the colony, we realize that the ecclesiastical patronage system represented an obstacle to the action of themselves at dioceses. The character of animosity in relations between Church authorities and representatives of the Crown in the captaincy, especially in the middle of the eighteenth century show that the submission of religious power in the face of ecclesiastical patronage system was not full. Gradually, following the guidelines of Trent, the Church takes form more defined in Cologne / Esta pesquisa tem como proposta um estudo sobre a diáspora da Igreja Católica de Portugal para a América Portuguesa no século XVIII, acompanhando um pouco da expansão da Cristandade, verificando o papel religioso, político e cultural dos sacramentos da Penitência e da prática das Indulgências. Consideramos as normas religiosas estabelecidas no Concílio de Trento e suas influências no processo da colonização portuguesa, além de ter presente que esse período é marcado pelas idéias dos movimentos renascentistas e iluministas. Ao acompanhar as preocupações pastorais e administrativas dos bispos, tanto em Portugal quanto na colônia, percebemos que o Padroado representou um obstáculo para a ação dos mesmos nas dioceses. O caráter de animosidade nas relações estabelecidas entre as autoridades eclesiásticas e os representantes da Coroa nas Capitânias, especialmente na metade do século XVIII, revelam que a submissão de poder religioso em virtude do Padroado não era plena. Gradualmente, na esteira das orientações de Trento, a Igreja toma um corpo mais definido na Colônia
