The Way

The names of stations in the Way of the Cross may be used as titles of pictures and sculptures, each corresponding to a particular event in the Passion of Christ, or as titles of meditations. The article focuses on the second meaning, but the trends of the development of both kinds of names are similar. The study is based on material consisting of about 200 texts of the service that have been published from the beginning of the 20 th century to the present (2020). The purpose of the article is to describe the changes that have taken place in the 20 th century, a period of particularly turbulent changes in religious discourse. The article deals with the function, syntactic structure and features of style, such as the use of archaic or colloquial vocabulary. These properties are considered in connection with social and cultural changes. At the beginning of the analyzed period, it was customary to use relatively long titles, which informed the participant or reader about a particular event using expressive and evaluative lexis. Those titles gradually gave way to short, schematic names. Since the Second Vatican Council, titles of a new type have appeared. Their purpose is to attract the attention of the recipient. They are based on a riddle, a contrast, allusions, etc. Therefore, the recipient derives satisfaction from deciphering the puzzle or finding the source of the quote or allusion. These phenomena are known from research on the language of press or fiction, but they can also be linked to current trends in the so-called new evangelization.

The 19Th Century

Marian apparitions attract modern masses since the 19th century. The radical message of the apparition asking for penitence and the return of public and politics to God resonated well within major parts of Catholicism. While popes kept promoting Marian pilgrimages in order to secure their public and political standing throughout the 20th and 21st century, they tried to control the masses and to attenuate the messages. Particularly since the Second Vatican Council, the popes tamed mobilization. Instead of stirring up the masses, popes kept modest at Marian apparitions sites. A quantitative analysis of the papal documents issued during papal journeys to Fatima, the most political apparition of the 20th century, shows that a modest religious discourse about God and world had been presented instead of promoting the critical messages of the apparition. Following the methodological ideal of parsimony, the analysis concentrates on the most uttered words during the journeys and compares the four pontificates since Paul VI. Instead of stressing the radical message of Fatima, which is introduced in the discussion of the findings, the pontificates share a modest Catholic discourse.

The Way

Once the need to reform Catholic ethics became manifest with the Second Vatican Council, revision and adaptation of moral theology, the science that had served since the Council of Trent as official Catholic ethics, was often presented as the theological path to renewal. Scrutiny of philosophical, ethical, and theological presuppositions, however, discloses that the foundations of moral theology differ radically from those on which contemporary theological ethics must be based and that, accordingly, the way to true reform is not revision and adaptation of moral theology but the replacement of this self-contained science through construction of a fundamentally different kind of ethics, theological relational ethics as an essential, integral part of a reconstituted holistic theology.

Based on information offered by the archives of the former Romanian Securitate, this paper presents the way in which the image and actions of Fr. Andre Scrima, one of the most important Romanian theologians from abroad (and the representative of the Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras to the Second Vatican Council), were a topic of interest for the aforementioned surveillance institution during the Romanian Communist regime. At the same time, the emphasis was on the relevance of the ecumenical area for the regime of Bucharest and its interest in using it in order to create the illusion of democracy and freedom. Ninety-five years after the birth of the Romanian theologian, who was not only the disciple of the Romanian Patriarch Justinian and of the aforementioned Greek Patriarch but also an important writer, professor, and abbot, this article aims to bring attention to his life and work, and to provide an investigation into an aspect of his biography which has not been investigated by contemporary researchers from the fields of theology and history until now.

The Way

Experience of encountering and being together with friends of a number of other religious traditions has contributed to changing the way one thinks, speaks and acts. This occurs only when there is a sincere readiness to open oneself to the other while at the same time acknowledging and appreciating plurality in the human family. In the Christian Church, both Catholic and Protestant, this can be understood as a result of the Second Vatican Council. In the context of Indonesia, and more specifically in Jogyakarta and in NTT Province, ecumenical relations between Catholics and Protestants indicate a desire for renewal (aggiornamento) in our common life. This is clear in collaboration between institutes of higher education, such as studying theology together, the use of a common Bible, acceptance of the deuterokanonika, meditation in common, and so forth. In such togetherness the ecclesial unity that Jesus prayed for derives its meaning. <b>Kata-kata kunci:</b> Perjumpaan, pembaruan, kesatuan, oikumene, tantangan, misi, kontekstualisasi, persaudaraan sejati

The Way

John Paul II’s care for seminaries falls within the implementation of the broadly understood teaching framework of the Second Vatican Council. In his numerous addresses and documents on the subject of becoming a priest the Pope reinterpreted the Council documents in a way which was attuned to modern times. He did this, since he wanted seminarians, who are educated to fulfill and continue the mission of Christ himself, to be properly prepared to take on the legacy and teachings of the Council in the third millennium of Christendom. John Paul II describes seminaries as educational collectivity “on the way” constituting a certain continuation of Christ’s disciples’ collectivity, whose experience determines the seminary’s identity and its normative ideal.

The Catholic Church

Until the mid-twentieth century, the Catholic Church did not recognize the principle of religious freedom, and hence the freedom of conscience. That is why her attitude to other religions, especially Christian churches, was based on the ecclesial and soteriological exclusivism "Extra Ecclesiam Romanam nulla salus" - "Out of the Roman Church there is no salvation." The Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) approved the "Decree on Religious Freedom", which opened the way for dialogue with other religions and ecumenism with Christian churches, especially the Orthodox.

A necessidade de uma "nova" evangelização se impõe diante do desafio de manter sempre viva e atual a novidade do Evangelho. Para remeter à origem da expressão, comumente refere-se a um discurso de João Paulo I I em uma Assembléia do Conselho Episcopal Latino-Americano, realizada no Haiti, em 1983. No entanto, "nova evangelização" é uma categoria que aparece já na Conferência de Medellín (1968), para expressar a exigência de levar adiante a renovação do Concilio Vaticano II (1962-1965), através de um novo modelo de pastoral: passar de uma "pastoral de conservação", com ênfase na sacramentalização (de cristandade), para uma pastoral transformadora, com ênfase na evangelização (de pós-cristandade). No entanto, a tradução mais fiel da exigência evangélica de que - para novos tempos, uma nova evangelização - , é a expressão "conversão pastoral", formulada pela Conferência de Santo Domingo (1992) e retomada na Conferência de Aparecida (2007). Ela acena para a superação de modelos de pastoral ultrapassados pela renovação do Concilio Vaticano I I e pela tradição latino-americana e que configuram, hoje, modelos de uma evangelização caduca no tempo e no espaço. ABSTRACT: The necessity for a "new" evangelization appears before the challenge of keeping alive and always current the novelty of the Gospel. To remember the origin of the expression, one commonly refers to a speech by John Paul I I in a Meeting of the Latin American Episcopal Council, held in Haiti, in 1983. However, "the new evangelization" is a category which already appears i n the Conference of Medellin (1968), to express the requirement to carry forward the renewal of the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), through a new pastoral model: to pass from a "pastoral" of conservation, w i t h an emphasis on sacramentalization (of Christianity), to a pastoral of transformation, w i t h an emphasis on pastoral evangelization (post-Christianity). However, the most accurate translation of the evangelical requirement that - f o r new times, a new evangelization-, is the expression "pastoral conversion", formulated by the Santo Domingo Conference (1992) and incorporated in the Conference of Aparecida (2007). It beckons for overcoming of outdated pastoral models by the renewal of the Second Vatican Council and by the Latin American tradition and that configure, today, models of an evangelization lost in time and space.
