McGOLDRICK, PATRICIA M. "NEW PERSPECTIVES ON PIUS XII AND VATICAN FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR." Historical Journal 55, no. 4 (November 15, 2012): 1029–48. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s0018246x12000416.
Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTThe debate about the political allegiance of Pius XII and the Vatican during the Second World War remains unresolved. As more documents become available, they enable historians, detractors and defenders alike, to develop a more nuanced view on this contentious issue. Files recently released by The National Archives1 come within this category. They reveal that during the Second World War the British government systematically intercepted, monitored, and recorded in detail the financial transactions listed in the bank statements of the main financial agencies of the State of Vatican City from 1941 to 1943. These documents provide a detailed, if occasionally incomplete, day by day and month by month record of the Vatican's sources of income, expenditure priorities, investment strategies, and movements of money throughout its global network under the difficult wartime conditions of foreign exchange controls, blocked sterling and dollar accounts, Freezing Orders, and Trading with the Enemy restrictions imposed by the belligerent parties. This article examines the light they shed on Vatican finances throughout that period and what new insights they provide into the role of Pius XII and the Vatican during the Second World War, and, in particular, into the question of where their sympathies lay throughout the duration of that conflict.

O artigo estuda as raízes e a inspiração de Medellín, examinando os passos dados pelo CELAM, durante o Concílio Vaticano II, para assegurar sua realização. Mostra o papel desempenhado pelo método utilizado na II Conferência, que coloca em primeiro plano a realidade sócio-econômica e política do continente, retomando-a à luz da palavra de Deus e do Concílio e desembocando em propostas de ação pastoral. Examina a recepção fiel, criativa e seletiva dos documentos do Concílio Vaticano II nas Conclusões de Medellín (Igreja dos pobres, CEBs, Educação libertadora) e a influência nelas exercida por documentos pontifícios, como a encíclica Populorum Progressio e os Discursos de Paulo VI, durante o Congresso Eucarístico de Bogotá. Conclui, analisando as principais lacunas de Medellín, no campo da história, da Bíblia e das culturas e resgatando sua relevância para a posterior caminhada da Igreja Latino-americana e caribenha.
Abstract: The article studies the roots and the inspiration of Medellín, examining the steps taken by CELAM, during the second Vatican Council, to ensure its realization. It shows the role played out by the method utilized in the second Conference, which places in the foreground the socio-economic and political reality of the continent, taking it up again in the light of the word of God and of the Council giving way to proposals of pastoral action. It examines the faithful, Creative and selective reception of the documents of the Vatican Coucil II in the conclusions of Medellín (Church of the poor, CEBs, liberating education) and the infiuence put into action through pontifical documents such as the Encyclical Populorum Progressio and the discourses of Pope Paul VI during the eucharistic Congress in Bogotá. In conclusion, it analyzes the main lacunas of Medellín, in the field of history, the Bible and the cultures and it salvages the relevance for thefurther way ofthe Latiu American and Caribbean Church.

Full textAbstract:
The author of polish origin, sets the political determinants of Moldovan Csango identity in a historical perspective. Her study’s outcome is based on her documentation work made in the Vatican Secret Archives (Archivio Segreto Vaticano) as well as at the Saint Congregation for Evangelization (Archivio Storico della Congregazione per l”Evanghelizazzione dei Popoli), till now a missing body of documents within csango studies. In her paper the author focuses on the political forces that affected identity change among the Csangos, embracing the period from 1860 to 1916. The insightful conclusion of the study unravells a Vatican who’s worries for it’s own influence in an orthodox country like Romania, though aware of its subjects true needs, make it accept conditions set by the Romanian Government, and with it’s own catholicism-disseminating actions finally contributed to the linguistic, religious and cultural „meeting process” of both the Csango and Romanian population

This article examines the contribution made by the publishing house of Herder to the reception of the teaching and decisions of Vatican II (1962–1965). This input began with the five volumes of Commentary on the Documents of Vatican II (German original 1966–1968), edited by Herbert Vorgrimler and including contributions from twenty-one authors who had played roles in drafting the Council’s sixteen documents and could expound from the inside the authorial intentions ( intentio auctoris) of these texts. The subsequent five volumes of the Herders Theologischer Kommentar (2004–2009), edited by Peter Hünermann, could also explore the post-Vatican II history of interpretation and implementation of the conciliar texts (the intentio textus) and the insights of readers with their different questions and expectations (the intentio legentis).

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTThis article engages the on-going debate over the interpretation of Vatican II's documents. It argues that a careful examination of this dispute reveals that it is not primarily concerned with the existence of “rupture” or “continuity” in the council's texts, but instead is driven by fundamental questions regarding the nature of reception and the character of ecclesial authority. The article outlines the distinctive notions of reception operative in the debate over Vatican II and the way in which such views shape their proponents' hermeneutics of interpretation. To that end, it illumines a determinative link between larger paradigms of ecclesiological structure and related approaches to reception. The final section explores Vatican II's own documents for the ways that they address the authentic nature of reception and the character of legitimate authority. Ultimately, this study argues that Vatican II's affirmation of a dynamic notion of reception points a way forward for its own interpretation and, more broadly, for advancing the Church's overall self-understanding.

Full textAbstract:
The materials and spirit of the Second Vatican Council have largely outstripped the comprehension of the extremely important religious, social, economic, and spiritual problems faced by the modern globalized world. This concerns in many respects the problems of labor, the understanding of the value-motivational factors of attitude towards it. Moreover, the attitude to work has its own social, economic, spiritual and, of course, religious studies. All this can not but correct the problem of attitude to work as a Christian phenomenon in the documents of the Second Vatican Council. In this regard, the very fact that in our time the socio-philosophical science is not sufficiently adapted to the Ukrainian needs and realities of the idea of the II Vatican Council of the Catholic Church (1962-1965) and the council documents of this Church

O autor, apoiando-se em documentos da Congregação para a Educação Católica e em carta do Secretário de Estado do Vaticano, analisa as motivações pelas quais “não se pode admitir ao seminário e às ordens sacras aqueles que praticam a homossexualidade, apresentam tendências homossexuais profundamente radicadas ou apoiam a chamada cultura gay”. Que a homossexualidade, tal como descrita nos documentos assinalados, representa um impedimento objetivo à ordenação, provém da própria natureza do sacerdócio: além de dificultar a ação pastoral, coloca em questão o modo mais adequado com que o presbítero estabelece relações tanto com homens quanto com mulheres.Abstract: With the support of documents from the Congregation for a Catholic Education and of a letter from the Secretariat of the Vatican State, the Author analyses the reasons why “it is not possible to admit into the seminary and in the sacred orders those who practice homosexuality, present deeply rooted homosexual tendencies or support the so-called gay culture”. It shows that homosexuality – as described in the above mentioned documents – represents an objective obstacle for the ordination that originates in the very nature of priesthood: besides hindering the pastoral action it raises the question of the most appropriate way for the presbyter to establish relations both with men and with women.

Síntese: Nesse trabalho apresentamos como o Concílio Vaticano II entra no processo de redescoberta da escatologia que se deu na virada do séc. XIX para o séc. XX no contexto da investigação sobre o Jesus histórico. Esse processo desemboca nos anos 50 e 60 do séc. XX, sob a inspiração do Princípio-Esperança de E. Bloch, na Teologia da Esperança de J. Moltmann. Passamos da compreensão da escatologia como último tratado da dogmática, os Novíssimos, para uma dimensão transcendental que perpassa toda a teologia cristã desde os seus fundamentos. Desta forma, deixamos para trás o paradigma clássico da teologia que girava em torno da filosofia da essência, para um novo paradigma em torno da filosofia da existência, respondendo às exigências da compreensão do ser humano própria da modernidade. Nossa hipótese é que o Concílio Vaticano II assimila em seus principais documentos essa nova perspectiva e, especificamente, na Lumen Gentium, cap. VII, sobre A índole escatológica da Igreja peregrina e sua união com a Igreja celeste.Palavras-chave: Escatologia. Cristologia. Igreja. História da salvação. Vaticano II.Abstracts: This Essay aims to present the way the Vatican II Council rediscover Eschatology. A process that was going on since the of the nineteenth century up to the twentieth century as the investigations about the historical Jesus began. This ongoing process reaches the fifties and the sixties of the twentieth Century inspired both by the Hope-Principle of E. Bloch and Moltmann’s Theology of Hope. There is a new understanding of eschatology that moves from Dogmatics’ last treatise to a transcendental dimension that touches the whole of the Christian theology on its very foundations. In this way, we leave behind theology’s classical paradigm based on an essentialist philosophy to a new one reflecting of a philosophy of Human Existence. This change in perspective meets the demands of a new understanding of man in modernity. In our view the Vatican II Council assimilates in its main documents this new perspective as we find for example in the Lumen Gentium cap. VII, where it deals with the eschatological nature of the Pilgrim Church and its union with the Celestial Church.Keywords: Eschatology. Christology. Church. The History of Salvation. Vatican II.

Cet article présente un petit bilan théologique du rétablissement du diaconat permanent. L’auteur rappelle d’abord ce qui a déterminé la décision conciliaire d’offrir aux Conférences des Évêques la possibilité de rétablir le diaconat dans son exercice permanent. Sur base de ce qu’il appelle la « théologie de fortune » présente dans les documents de Vatican II, il montre comment les développements ultérieurs ont à la fois consolidé la théologie du diaconat et mis en lumière des dérives possibles dans la compréhension et la pratique de ce ministère. À cet égard, le document de la Commission théologique internationale paru en 2002 et les nouveaux canons 1008 et 1009 promulgués en 2010 constituent des repères solides pour la poursuite du rétablissement du diaconat permanent. Une chose est sûre : la destinée de ce ministère est bel et bien dans les mains des Églises locales.

Documents of the Second Vatican Council became essential root of the Canon Code Law of 1983. There is a number of references to conciliar constitutions, decrees and declarations in each Canon Book. This is true also in regard to the marital law included in Ćanons 1055-1165. Amongst sources which were inspirations for the aforementioned marital law there were the following constitutions: Sacrosanctum Concilium, Lumen gentium, and Gaudium et spes; and decrees: Orientalium...., Unitatis..., Christus...and Apostolicum and also Gravissimum. Lawmaker makes 34 references to these documents. The conducted analysis allows to show to what extend norms of the marital law remain under the influence of the Second Vatican Council.

The Second Vatican Council is recognised by the Roman Catholic Church as the twenty-first ecumenical council. The largest in terms of participants and one of the longest-running, it also covered the widest range of topics and produced the largest volume of documents and decrees. This article, based on the text of the ninth Lyndwood Lecture, examines a number of characteristics of Vatican II in comparison with previous councils, arguing that, while in many ways Vatican II was novel, in its composition, agenda, influence and reception one can discern parallels with past councils back as far as the first ecumenical council at Nicea in 325.1

Full textAbstract:
The following article is one of the voices in the debate about the universality of priestly celibacy. It attempts to track the development of the theological and personalist arguments for celibacy contained in the most significant documents of the Magisterium of the Church. A special emphasis has been put on contemporary texts, issued after the Second Vatican Council. This choice has been caused by two major reasons. First, post-conciliar documents introduce a new quality to the argument of the universality of celibacy. Second, they have a far bigger impact on the discipline of the Church than previous texts.

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo refletir sobre os artifícios para nomeação, entendimento e perseguição de bruxas e feiticeiras em dois diferentes períodos históricos. Utilizando de metodologias próprias à história comparada, selecionei alguns documentos, tanto produzidos pelo Vaticano ou por notórios inquisidores europeus– incluindo textos de meados do século VI até meados do século XIV -, bem como documentos que constituíram ou fomentaram políticas de Estado para a construção sul-africana nos primeiros anos do século XX. Apesar das diferenças entre esses documentos, pretendo investigar a permanência do “medo das bruxas”, que se inicia na Europa e pode ter reverberado em algumas colônias em África, bem como refletir sobre como as acusações de bruxas e feiticeiras podem ser indícios de outras latentes questões sociais em diferentes períodos históricos. Palavras-Chave: História Comparada; Inquisição; Colonialismo; Feitiçaria. AbstractThis paper aims to reflect on the devices for naming, understanding, and persecuting witches and wizards in two different historical periods. Using typical methodologies of comparative history, I selected some documents, either produced by the Vatican or by notorious European inquisitors - including texts from the mid-sixth to the mid-fourteenth centuries - and documents that constituted or fostered state policies for the South Africa construction at the beginning of the twentieth century. Despite the differences between these documents, my intention is to investigate the permanence of the “fear of witches,” which begins in Europe and may have reverberated in some colonies in Africa. These accusations of witches and sorceries could be signs of others latent social issues must also be considered in different historical periods.Keywords: Comparative History; Inquisition; Colonialism; Sorcery.

Full textAbstract:
Plus que la somme de ses décrets et de ses documents, Vatican II doit avant tout être considéré comme un événement qui marque le passage de l’Église catholique à un autre contexte historique, religieux et culturel. Vatican II marque donc une rupture dans le devenir du catholicisme et ce concile, qualifié de pastoral, inscrit une discontinuité dans la lignée des conciles de l’Église. Cela comporte des conséquences sur le plan de l’herméneutique conciliaire qui ne doit pas se réduire à l’analyse de ses textes ou de ses décisions. Au cours de sa réception, il faut demeurer à la fois attentif aux exigences de l’esprit contemporain et aux requêtes de la foi. C’est dans cette mesure seulement que nous honorerons ce que Vatican II a voulu inaugurer.

Full textAbstract:
This article presents an historical and critical review of the Declaration on Christian Education Gravissimum Educationis, promulgated on October 28, 1965, during the fourth and last session of Vatican II. By considering the history and context of this document, and after evaluating the three socio-ecclesial factors that were behind the text, an assessment of the reception of Gravissimum Educationis principles in the Latin American Church is made. The Conference of Bishops at Medellín in 1968 rejected many points of Gravissimum Educationis. In 1979, the Third General Conference at Puebla proposed a new concept of education for the continent. The bishops considered that education has to be, first of all, an evangelizing task. By analyzing the state of education in the continent, the Fifth Conference at Aparecida also criticizes trends that impoverished the real purpose of education in the continent. The article concludes that both the content and the history behind Gravissimum Educationis make this declaration of Vatican II a lesser document in comparison to other conciliar documents such as Gaudium et spes or Lumen gentium. Even though the Declaration introduces some principles of education and schooling, these are presented in a defensive form, precisely a form that other main conciliar documents try to avoid. For these reasons, Gravissimum Educationis was not well-received in Latin America.

Full textAbstract:
This study begins with articles that appeared in Theological Studies during Vatican II and concerned the making of three conciliar documents. It then investigates the reception of the Council in the pages of Theological Studies: the first twenty years (1966–85); the ensuing decades (1986–2011); the fifty-year celebrations (2012–15) and their immediate aftermath. The Extraordinary Synod of 1985 gave a fresh impetus to research and writing about Vatican II. This article examines major contributions to the reception of the Council that appeared in Theological Studies and came from such scholars as Avery Dulles, John O’Malley, Francis Sullivan, and Jared Wicks. Theological Studies has done much toward receiving Vatican II and continues to do so.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This paper provides an analysis of Gravissimum Educationis, the Vatican II declaration on Christian Education. The paper focusses on speech acts as text signals for an ideal reader within the declaration’s communication framework. To date, speech acts have not been scrutinized in Vatican II constitutions, decrees, or declarations. An analysis of performative utterances in Gravissimum Educationis is presented on the basis of J.R. Searle’s taxonomy on speech acts. The major finding is that in its speech acts, Gravissimum Educationis, as a Vatican II declaration, stands out from previous ecclesiastical documents. As a new form of Church language, it is innovative and, as such, may fit in well with the panegyric literary genre.

Full textAbstract:
Le 11 octobre 1962, un discours étonnant de Jean XXIII inaugure les travaux de Vatican II. Mais la surprise ne devait pas s’arrêter là. Très vite, les Pères vont s’écarter de l’ordre du jour prévu pour les travaux conciliaires. La demande de report des votes aux différentes commissions conciliaires, la discussion non-planifiée d’un Message à tous les hommes, le renvoi du De fontibus, autant d’événements qui ne correspondaient pas aux plans élaborés par la Curie en vue du Concile. Or, l’examen des documents permet de croire que le retournement du mois d’octobre se préparait déjà depuis le mois de mai, dans les grands évêchés de l’Europe centrale. En Amérique du Nord, seul Léger semble avoir activement participé à cette coalition qui a largement contribué à la réorientation de Vatican II.

Massimo Firpo's critical introductions to these two volumes builds securely on his previously published essays, which included an account of Carnesecchi based on the edition of 1870. What he now writes confirms and extends his earlier findings.

Graças a esse percurso é possível recolocar as motivações pró e contra a ordenação de homens casados, fazendo-as ressoar no contexto da Igreja católica na atualidade.

This clarification has been viable due to the possibility of access to the documents relevant to the proposal and to the reconstruction of their path. At the time, the proposal was made available to the public and caused a very strong reaction. Thanks to this path it is possible to return to the motivations for and against married men’s ordination, making them reverberate in the present day’s Catholic Church. The theme is being explicitly dealt with once again in the preparations for the Pan-Amazonian Synod.Keywords: Vatican II Council; Priestly ordination of married men; Ecclesiastical celibacy; Pedro Paulo Koop; Pan-Amazonian Synod.

Full textAbstract:
Not all accounts of Vatican II, 1962–65, recognize that the 200 carefully selected non-Roman Catholic Observers had a considerable influence on the Council and on its major documents about the Church, Church unity, liturgy, the Jews and religious freedom. Their impact is assessed both by Roman Catholic theologians like Congar and Willebrands and Observers such as Bishop Moorman and Robert McAfee Brown together with comments Karl Barth later made on some of the documents in his discussions with Pope Paul VI and others, including Ratzinger and Rahner in Rome. An attempt is made to explain how the Observers had the influence they did. One conclusion is that they helped the Council evolve from what could have been a purely domestic affair and a rubber-stamping exercise dealing with 70 documents, already prepared by the Curia, and Commissioners appointed by the Pope, into a genuinely ecumenical, deliberative, debating and decision-making council of the worldwide Church.

Full textAbstract:
Since Vatican II was convened as an ecumenical council, most Orthodox autocephalous churches initially refused to send observers without full voting rights. For non-theological reasons, Russia was the exception that sent observers to the first session. Other Orthodox churches followed suit at later sessions. Despite their inability to vote or speak at plenaries, Orthodox delegates contributed to the Council’s documents, ecumenical openness, attitude towards communism, and from a humanitarian perspective. By granting Orthodox observers a prominent role, Vatican II represents a model of ecumenical integration in the conciliar process.

[The author first examines the application of the qualificatio theologica or theological norm as an aid to doctrinal interpretation in Catholic neo-Scholastic theology. He then explores the emergence of related interpretive questions at Vatican II, particularly with regard to two sections of Lumen gentium. His examination suggests a hermeneutical principle for interpreting the documents of Vatican II, namely the importance of being attentive to the nature of the council as a transitional event in Catholic theology. His study also highlights the continuing need for a consistent method of qualifying doctrinal statements.]

Vatican II represented a fresh start for studies in missiology and ecumenical theology. Especially its call to contextualize and rethink old theological dogmas was well received in many churches in Latin America and Africa that were involved in a process of liberation from old colonial structures. In South Africa the church struggle resulted in the formulation of the Kairos document in 1985. It has since inspired theologians in Palestine/Israel to formulate a Palestinian Kairos document in 2009. In both documents the concepts of reconciliation and restorative justice are used to express interrelated realities. A group of international theologians marked the 500 year of the Reformation by publishing a declaration in January 2017 in Wittenberg, Germany, in line with the two Kairos documents. This shows that in missiology and ecumenical theology new theological inspiration is now coming from the Global South, thereby challenging the Western churches to take a stand in the on-going conflict in Palestine/Israel.

There are serious reasons to argue that with Evangelii Gaudium by Pope Francis, the magisterium of the Catholic Church has finally come to fully acknowledge the function of the locus theologicus played by the poor. This study, which constitutes the first of two articles devoted to the subject, investigates the foundation of this dogmatic datum in two sources of revelation: the Holy Scripture and the recent teachings of the magisterium. To this end, in the first place, it examines the role that the Old and New Testaments entrust to the poor within revelation; then it documents the rediscovery of the poor as theological place in the most important documents of the magisterium, during the time between Vatican Council II and Evangelii Gaudium. ***Fundamento bíblico e desenvolvimento magisterial do dado dogmático do pobre como lugar teológico***Existem razões sólidas para arguir que, com a Evangelii Gaudium, do Papa Francisco, o Magistério da Igreja Católica, finalmente, passou a reconhecer a função do locus theologicus exercido pelos pobres. O presente estudo, que é o primeiro de dois artigos dedicados ao tema, investiga os fundamentos desse dado dogmático em duas fontes da revelação: a Sagrada Escritura e os ensinamentos recentes do Magistério. Para esse fim, examina-se, primeiramente, o papel atribuído aos pobres pelos Antigo e Novo Testamentos na revelação; em seguida, demonstra-se a redescoberta dos pobres como lugar teológico nos documentos mais importantes do Magistério durante o intervalo de tempo entre o Concílio Vaticano II e a Evangelii Gaudium.

A participação da mulher na vida da Igreja é um fato inegável. Porém, como na sociedade civil, a mulher herdou o estereótipo de ser destinada unicamente “à procriação e aos trabalhos domésticos”. Isto tem impedido que, muitas vezes, ela seja considerada “sujeito” da vida eclesial. Este artigo parte desta realidade e apresenta, a partir de alguns documentos do ensino papal (Leão XIII, Bento XV, Pio XI, Pio XII, João XXIII, Paulo VI e João Paulo II), a maneira como se tem concebido a mulher e seus papéis na vida social e eclesial. Destacam-se as contribuições dos documentos do Vaticano II, de Medellín e de Puebla na superação de estereótipos em relação à mulher. Estes documentos, na verdade, oferecem um horizonte libertador, que pode contribuir decisivamente para outra concepção do papel da mulher na vida eclesial. Porém, estas mudanças não serão desencadeadas pelo mandato das autoridades oficiais, mas sim, pela iniciativa das próprias mulheres.Abstract: Women’s participation in the Church life is an undeniable fact. However, in the Church as in civil society, women have inherited the stereotype of being destined only “to procreation and housework”. This has often prevented them from being considered “subjects” of ecclesial life. Starting from this reality, this article discusses, with the help of some documents of the Magisterium (Leo XIII, Benedict XV, Pius XI, Pius XII, John XXIII, Paul VI and John Paul II), how women and their roles have been interpreted in social and ecclesial life. It is important to note the specific contributions of the Vatican II documents and those of Medellin and Puebla to the struggle against the usual stereotypes related to women. Indeed, these documents offer a liberating horizon that can contribute decisively for another view of the role of women in ecclesial life. Nevertheless, these changes will not be unchained by the official authorities’ mandate but by the initiative of women themselves.

Entre as inúmeras aberturas para o “novo” do Evangelho de Jesus Cristo no mundo de hoje que o Concílio Vaticano II trouxe está, sem dúvida, a abertura de um espaço mais visível para a mulher. O presente artigo procura demonstrar como os textos do Concílio já mencionam explicitamente esta novidade. A seguir, mostra a trajetória que a mulher fez nos tempos pós-conciliares. Alguns documentos do Papa Paulo VI e do Papa João Paulo II reconhecem e valorizam esse caminho. Concluindo, apresenta a situação da mulher no hoje da Igreja e da sociedade.Abstract: There is no doubt that the acceptance of a more visible place for women is one of the main ‘novelties’ of the Gospel of Jesus Christ brought to light by the Council Vatican II. The present article attempts to show how the Council’s texts already mentioned this novelty explicitly. Subsequently the paper gives an overview of women’s trajectory in the postCouncil period. Some documents written by Pope Paul VI and Pope John Paul II obviously recognize and encourage this new stance. To conclude, the paper looks at the situation of women today, in the Church and in society as a whole.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract One of the smallest and most influential documents of Vatican II is the Nostra aetate (declaration. The dynamic of the discussions as it was formulated and the subsequent arduous process of and reception application on local church level proved that the reconsideration of the attitude of the Roman-Catholic Church towards Judaism was concealing unforeseen consequences at the moment of the promulgation. Not only that Nostra aetate has been a turning point for the relationships between Catholicism and Judaism, but it has opened and encouraged – of course, along other documents of the council – a whole new perception of one another and of the ecumenical dialogue. The Jewish response to the 50 years Jubilee of Vatican II confirms the ultimately social relevance of the possible collaboration between Christians and Jews in ethical issues. This paper puts at the fore the Nostra aetate as example for the Orthodox Church as well, and draws attention to the many benefits that may follow such responses.

The relationship between the Vatican and Russia has been the subject of research by more than one generation of scientists representing various scientific schools. Of particular interest was the pontificate of Leo XIII. The new emphasis of the foreign policy of the Curia, initiated by him, provided for the establishment of friendly relations with the Russian Empire. In this regard, the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences intensified the study of the history of the papacy. In the end, she published a number of interesting documents, edited by E.F. Shmurla (for the period from the creation of the centralized Russian state until the death of Peter I), A. Turgenev (2 volumes, 1841-1842), A. Popov (1845-1850). In Soviet historiography, the study of the history of Vatican-Russian relations in the nineteenth century. engaged M. Sheiman, E. Adamov. On the basis of documentary materials, a monograph of the German scientist E. Winter was constructed. The documents published by the authors have not lost their significance for the modern researcher. Their impartial analysis opens up the possibility of a new understanding of the Eastern policy of the Apostolic See, the place and role of Catholics of the Orthodox rite, in particular Ukrainian Greek Catholics in the context of these relations.

Full textAbstract:
The Second Vatican Council was a unique event in the history of the Roman Catholic Church. Initiated by Pope John XXIII, it was intended to make the Roman Catholic Church more open to the contemporary society and bring it closer to the people. The principal aim of the council was the so called aggiornamento (updating). The phenomenon of updating the ecclesiastical life consisted in the following: on the one hand, modernization of the life of the Church and closer relations with the secular world; on the other hand, preserving all the traditions upon which the ecclesiastical life was founded. Hence in the Council’s documents we find another, French word ressourcement meaning ‘return to the origins’ based on the Holy Scripture and the works of the Church Fathers. The aggiornamento phenomenon emerged during the Second Vatican Council due to the movement within the Catholic Church called nouvelle theologie (French for “new theology”). Its representatives advanced the ideas that became fundamental in the Council’s decisions. The nouvelle theologie was often associated with modernism as some of the ideas of its representatives seemed to be very similar to those of modernism. However, what made the greatest difference between the two movements was their attitude towards the tradition. For the nouvelle theologie it was very important to revive Christianity in its initial version, hence their striving for returning to the sources, for the oecumenical movement, for better relations with non-Catholics and for liturgical renewal. All these ideas can be traced in the documents of the Second Vatican Council, and all this is characterized by the word aggiornamento.

Full textAbstract:
In 1486 the Padua Cathedral canons requested permission to build a new apsidal choir in “the way and structure of the church of St. Peter in Rome.” The canons were evidently referring to the unfinished Vatican tribuna: a deep vaulted apse at the west end of St. Peter’s. Newly published documents reveal that both Nicholas V and Paul II spent large sums on its construction. The Paduan case shows that the Vatican tribuna was influential in terms of architectural type and function. Although the physical extent of the fifteenth-century work is hard to determine, Bramante’s continuation of the extension in the sixteenth century shows it was considered substantial enough not to abandon completely. In Nicholas V’s Tribuna for Old St. Peter’s in Rome as a Model for the New Apsidal Choir at Padua Cathedral, Joanne Allen suggests that the St. Peter’s project could represent an important episode in the development of extended high altar chapels and retrochoirs, a phenomenon that gained momentum in the decades after work began on the Vatican tribuna.

They have "the source of genuine renewal", which can be used to answer the challenges of the Church and humanity in the Third Millennium1. A similar opinion was expressed in his interview and about.

Yves Congar’s and Hans Küng’s modes of participation at Vatican II reflect different visions of ecclesial reform. Congar followed an ‘inside’ path, working on the conciliar commissions that produced Vatican II’s documents; Küng chose an ‘outside’ path, pursuing his own writing projects and engaging the mass-media. Their choice of differing paths was neither arbitrary nor merely temperamental, but cohered in both instances with substantial theologies of reform. Attending to the inseparability of the historical-biographical and systematic dimensions of their respective trajectories, this article first examines Congar’s evaluation of his own role at the Council and of the roles of other participants, as witnessed by his conciliar journal spanning the years 1960 to 1966. The article then does likewise for Küng, drawing primarily upon his memoirs. It concludes by comparing their paths of reform and addressing the implications of their differences.

Full textAbstract:
The primary purpose of this paper is to present the post-council theology in terms of theology of primacy of the most important theologians and in the most important documents in the period after the Second Vatican Council. Based in its documents, the Council made a huge turn in the Roman Catholic ecclesiology. However, although the Ecumenical Council did not give any final solutions, documents about the most important issues remain open for further reflection and contemplative upgrading. The Council only laid the foundations on which such an undertaking could begin. The paper focuses on theology of primacy that evolved from the Council?s documents during the period after the Second Council. The focus will be on subjects that had an impact not only on the Roman Catholic, but in particular on the Orthodox and other churches as well. The author of the paper will say more about the infallibility of the Pope, the primacy of the Roman bishop, about the relation of the Pope with other bishops, and about the relation of local and universal Church in the light of the post-council theology. Particular attention will be paid to the New catechism, a statement of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Mysterium Ecclesiae, and the dispute between cardinals Joseph Ratzinger and Walter Kasper about the relation between the universal and local Church, with special reference to the letter from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Communionis Notia, written by Cardinal Ratzinger.

The Second Vatican Council influenced on the apostolate of most of the religious orders and congregations devoted to education. The need to adequate themselves to the new educational statements that were promoted through the Council Documents will bring about significant changes in their pedagogical premises. The aim of this article is to show how this process was managed by two well-known religious congregations in the Basque Country: De La Salle Brothers and the Vedruna Sisters. To analyse this case, we have used primary sources from the archives of both congregations where the process of accommodation to Vatican II is brought to light. In conclusion, it can be highlighted that an internal renovation happened according to the religious premises, and some pedagogical renewal aspects took place concerning the importance of the Basque language and culture, teacher training, and the option for the poor.
