CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / RESUMO No Brasil o impacto modernizador das dÃcadas de 1950 e 1960 e a vitÃria da RevoluÃÃo Cubana em 1959, produziram temores no seio dos setores conservadores da sociedade brasileira, em especial para a Igreja CatÃlica. Nesses anos, solidificaram-se e radicalizaram-se duas perspectivas de interpretaÃÃo daqueles sinais da modernidade: uma, de matiz liberal defendia que a Igreja deveria ser aberta aos novos tempos; outra, de natureza conservadora, articulava-se no sentido de desqualificar os esforÃos de atualizaÃÃo e de inserÃÃo da Igreja nas problemÃticas da realidade brasileira. A primeira corrente, passou a ser denominada de âesquerda catÃlicaâ por defender teses capazes de provocar rupturas na estrutura socioeconÃmica que mantinha o paÃs no rol das naÃÃes subdesenvolvidas e tem sua origem em movimentos liderados por bispos, padres e leigos, principalmente da regiÃo Nordeste, tais como o Movimento de Natal, a criaÃÃo da ConferÃncia Nacional dos Bispos do Brasil (CNBB) e o Movimento de EducaÃÃo de Base. Naquele momento histÃrico, o ConcÃlio Vaticano II, convocado por JoÃo XXIII assume diante da Igreja uma posiÃÃo de abertura, de diÃlogo com o mundo e de provocaÃÃo de um aggiornamento, inspirando novos desenhos para o catolicismo, corroborando, de certa forma, algumas aÃÃes jà desenvolvidas pelas pastorais da Igreja no Brasil, em especial a do Nordeste. O escopo principal desta tese à narrar as principais questÃes sociais, polÃticas e pastorais que marcaram a passagem de Dom Josà de Medeiros Delgado pelo arcebispado de Fortaleza, entre as dÃcadas de1960 e 1970. Palavras-chave: Catolicismo brasileiro; ConcÃlio Vaticano II; HistÃria da Igreja CatÃlica. / ABSTRACT In Brazil, the modernizing impact of the 1950s and 1960s and the victory of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, has produced fears within the conservative sectors of Brazilian society, especially for the Catholic church. In these years, two perspectives of interpretation about those signs of modernity had been solidified and radicalized: one from liberal hue which argued that the Church should be open to new times; another, inherently conservative, was articulated in order to disqualifying efforts on update and insertion of the Church on problematic of Brazilian reality. The first stream, was named the "Catholic Left" for defending theses that could cause disruptions in the socioeconomic structure that kept the country in the list of underdeveloped nations and has its origin in movements led by bishops, priests and laity, especially from the Northeast, such as "Movement from Natal", the creation of the National Conference of Bishops of Brazil (CNBB) and the "Basic Education Movement". At that historical moment, the Second Vatican Council, convened by Pope John XXIII, assumes before the Catholic Church a position of openness, dialogue with the world and challenge of an aggiornamento, inspiring new designs to Catholicism, corroborating, somehow, some actions already developed by pastoral from Church in Brazil, especially in the Northeast. The main scope of this thesis is to narrate the major social, political and pastoral issues that marked the passing of Don Jose de Medeiros Delgado by Archbishop of Fortaleza, between the 1960s and 1970s decades.

Desde seus primeiros movimentos, a instituição eclesiástica foi ameaçada pelas novas forças emergentes, tanto no plano de seu poder temporal, quanto no plano de seu pensamento teológico. No século XIX delinearam-se duas formas de interpretar os “sinais dos tempos”: uma – de tendência liberal – que entendia que a Igreja deveria se “abrir” às novas disposições, e outra – de tendência conservadora – que via com grande desconfiança o mundo novo que se vislumbrava, defendendo fervorosamente a ordem disciplinar e doutrinal. Ambas tiveram também projeção no Brasil, e já entre a primeira e a segunda metade do século XX foi possível notar as divisões crescentes no catolicismo brasileiro. O Concílio Vaticano II pode ser considerado o campo no qual essas duas linhas compreensivas se cruzaram mais claramente e combateram por maior influência nos rumos do cristianismo. O objetivo principal desta tese é o de apresentar as linhas de pensamento que marcam a tendência conservadora, sua organização e principais ações no interior do Concílio. / The rising of modernity brought out several issues for the Roman Catholic Church. Since its first movements, the ecclesiastic institution had been threatened by the emergent forces, both in the ground of its temporal power, and in the ground of its theological thought. In the 19th century, two ways of seeing the “signs of the times” were designed: one – based on a liberal inclination – advocated that the Church should “open” itself for the new disposals; and other – based on a conservative inclination – noticed with suspicion the new rising world, and supported feverously the disciplinal and doctrinal order. Both streams had its projections on Brazil, and throughout the 20th Century it was possible to notice the growing division inside the Brazilian Catholicism. The II Vatican Council could be considered the ground where those two thought streams had encountered each other and had fought for a greater influence on the Christianity future. The main purpose of this thesis is to present the approaches that mark the conservative inclination thought, its organization, and its main actions inside the Council.

In my thesis I came to several conclusions. Holy Fathers John XXIII., Paul IV. and Francis, who followed and related the legacy of II. of the Vatican Council to, are much more popular in society than the popes, who have a different opinion and do not support the last ecumenical council. The openness of the personality and the pope's approach to the church modernization is for public absolutely necessary. Another crucial aspect for today's church is for sure the media world.

The thesis "The Sacrament of Confirmation - the theological understanding in the particular documents and regulations of the dioceses (in Slovak Republic and Czech Republic) and its comparison with the theological concept in the universal magisterial documents from the second Vatican council until now" deals with the sacrament of confirmation as the essential part of Christian initiation which constitutes the heart of sacramental organism and shapes being of every Christian. First two chapters analyze presence of the seven aspects of confirmation in universal and particular magisterial documents (history of salvation; sacramental sign; relationship to the rest of initiation, common priesthood and apostolate; effects; recipient and catechesis; minister; ecumenical perspective). Then in the third chapter, the two approaches are compared and critically considered.

The thesis "Ecumenism in the work of Josef Kubalík" provides an overview of several works of professor Josef Kubalík. His works influenced generations of students of Catholic theology. Author was a professor of Fundamental Theology at Cyrilometodějská bohoslovecká faculty in Litoměřice in the second half of the 20th century. He wrote a lot of books, university textbooks and ariticles in specialized press. Theologia Fundamentalis has been his most known work. Which is partly still under the influence of manualistic, apologetic-polemical theology. In his later reissues are added council documents Dei Verbum and Lumen Gentium. He translated documents of Second Vatican Ecumenical Council for professional public. We compare his work to these documents and to Ut Unum Sint. At the end it is said, that professor Kubalík grew in the openness and friendliness towards non - Catholics. But he was unable to change given schemes of his thinking.

The outcomes of the Second Vatican Council have brought essential changes into liturgy, having impacted the liturgical space as well. However, the totalitarian communist regime that was in power in Czech lands at the time allowed only a limited space for the application of the Council outcomes in practice. That is why the post-Council situation in liturgy is in many ways unique in the Czech Republic. After the Velvet Revolution there was a rapid and rapturous development that has brought not only positives, but also certain negatives stemming from the too-quickly loosening grip of bondage. The aim of this thesis is to monitor the state of the discussion on liturgical space in the period between the Second Vatican Council and the present day. The theoretical part looks at the summary of the discussion in the Czech Republic before the Second Vatican Council, then briefly presents concept of sacred space of the Second Vatican Council and at the end outlines the pre-Council and the post-Council European context. The practical part consists in the finding, researching and evaluating of materials concerning the subject. They have been assessed according to three main criteria. The first is a historical viewpoint sorting the materials by the time they came into being. The second classifies them by the...

In 1936 the founders of PAX aimed at 'resistance to modern warfare on grounds of traditional morality'. Believing that 'just war' criteria could no longer be met, they called themselves pacifists. Although most members were Roman Catholic Pax did not claim to be a 'Catholic society' because the RC Church at that time took an opposing view, particularly of conscientious objection. Church authorities attempted to censor Pax literature and instructed clergy to resign from the society. Pax supported conscientious objectors during the Second World War. When membership declined afterwards it continued to publish the Pax Bulletin and to provide a forum where Catholics could debate theological and practical questions of war and peace. By the 1960s Pax had gained some distinguished sponsors and a branch in the United States - support which enabled it to influence debate at the Second Vatican Council in 1965. The Council endorsed the right to conscientious objection. In 1971 Pax merged with Pax Christi, the international Catholic peace organisation which began in France in 1944/45. This is the first detailed historical study of the Roman Catholic element in the British peace movement. The story of Pax demonstrates the part that even a small pressure group can play in changing public opinion through patient work. Eventually, despite apathy and opposition, Pax helped bring the RC Church to a recognition of the right to conscientious objection and played a crucial role in the development of a more widespread peace movement within the Church

The diploma thesis consists of three parts. The first one describes the historical role of psalms during masses from their origin until presence. It illuminates the new role of psalms in the Cathlolic liturgy after the second Vatican council and outlines how these liturgical changes projected into Czech Catholic enviroments. The second part introduces significant Czech psalters and their authors. The psalters were created for liturgical needs and in reaction to the conclusions of the 2VC for liturgical needs. The third, main part of the thesis consists of detailed analysis of 1992 Karel Sklenička's psalter Responsoriální žalmy pro neděle a významné dny liturgického roku. The analysis of harmonic and melodic procedures of individual tones serves as a basis for the practival part of the thesis which is an extension of existing Sklenička's psalter to all days of liturgical year. The new psalter preserves the music component composed by Karel Sklenička and also preserves the way of work with the liturgical text in new psalms following the pattern of Karel Sklenička. The new psalter keeps strictly to the liturgically prescribed texts for individual liturgical occasions like the psalter from 1992.

As disputas em torno das referidas identidades geraram discussões e debates na Igreja Católica, presentes nos documentos conciliares e numa extensa produção bibliográfica, e que se desdobraram em instituições como a Ordem dos Frades Menores Capuchinhos, mantenedora do Seminário Santa Maria. A partir da análise dos documentos do Concílio Vaticano II, da Ordem dos Frades Menores Capuchinhos, do Seminário Santa Maria, do estudo bibliográfico, bem como de entrevistas e fotografias, é possível perceber as competições, usos, consumos e práticas dos discursos produzidos pela hierarquia católica entre os sujeitos sociais envolvidos. Resultados revelam que as identidades não são reformuladas por decreto e que mesmo em ambientes onde prevalece a posição hierárquica, elas são ressignificadas de forma constante nos embates do cotidiano. / The objective of this research is to analyze how the daily tensions in the Santa Maria Seraphic Seminary, located in Irati, southwestern Paraná, express difficulties in the reformulation of priestly and Franciscan identities proposed by the Second Vatican Council (1962- 1965). The disputes over these identities generated discussions and debates in the Catholic Church, present in the conciliar documents and in an extensive bibliographical production, and which were deployed in institutions such as the Capuchin Order of Friars Minor, maintainer of the Santa Maria Seminary. From the analysis of the documents of the Second Vatican Council, the Order of the Capuchin Friars Minor, the Santa Maria Seminary, the bibliographic study, as well as interviews and photographs, it is possible to perceive the competitions, uses, consumptions and practices of the discourses produced by the hierarchy among the social subjects involved. Results reveal that identities are not reformulated by decree and that even in environments where the hierarchical position prevails, they are constantly re-signified in the everyday struggles.
