Corpus verum et mysticum. The development of the relationship between the Eucharist and the Church in Theology from the 9 to the 12 century
Hrabánek, Lukáš ; Brož, Prokop (advisor) ; Mohelník, Tomáš (referee)
The Diploma thesis "Corpus verum et mysticum. The development of the relationship between the Eucharist and the Church in Theology from the 9th to the 12th century." is based on theological debates of the 20th century, concerning the application of the term corpus mysticum. While magisterial documents use this expression for the Church, a French theologist Henry de Lubac calls attention to the original holder - to the Eucharist. That's why this Diploma thesis is interested in a conception of the Church and the Eucharist, in their relationship and in their terminological development. It proceeds in chronological order. Initially it tries in a mentioned point of view to find and evaluate default texts in the Holy Scripture (Chapter 1), which were received by distinguished authors in the patristic period (Chapter 2). They influenced afterwards theologists of the Middle Age from 9th to 12th century. During this period the Eucharistic doctrine and the theological synthesis corpus triforme (Church, Eucharist and historical-heavenly Jesus) were being formed and developed; each of them was influencing the other one. It is possible to notice a cardinal change during the Eucharistic controversies, when the symbolic conception of Berengar of Tours was condemned by the Roman synod in 1078. That's why the...

Matyska, Martin ; Brož, Prokop (advisor) ; Bouma, David (referee)
The Diploma thesis "The birth of community in the Church as a fundamental presupposition for the functioning of the Church" discusses the creation of communities in the Church in the light of biblical theology, theological anthropology, magisterial documents and contemporary trends in theology. It is based on thinking about man and deals with these subsidiary questions: What is the Church, and what is the relationship between a person and the Church? For what reason does the Church exists? What is the role of a person assimilated into the Church? What characteristics should he have? What is the Church's relationship to God? Are special communities really so important? Isn't a "parish" spirituality enough? It is necessary to renew the initial ardour? Does not the Spirit act in the Church permanently? However, the main task was to answer the question of whether or not the Holy Spirit uses similar paradigms for the creation of individual communities in the Church. This thesis comprises two parts: its theoretical part deals with the theology of the creation of a community. In the second part we present four communities selected from the history and the present times. The answer to the main question of the thesis we sought using historical-comparative method. Keywords church, community, kerygma,...
