Ecclesia universalis versus Ecclesia nationalis. The Path to the Division of the Prague Theological Faculty in 1891
Kunštát, Miroslav
Contribution describes the path leading 10 years after the partition of the University of Prague (1882) also to the division of the still existing bi-nazional Catholic Theological Faculty in 1891. The division came after nearly a decade of stormy discussions in the Church and Society which revealed that the Church was by no means immune to the impact of modern secularism, liberalism, socialism and of the Czech and German national movements. The author's attention is especially devoted to the opinions of the professor of Moral Theology and later the Prague's auxiliary Bishop Wenzel Frind (1843-1932).
