Rethinking Theology in the 21st Century: A comparison of the Theology of the World by Richard Holloway, Rowan Williams and Slavoj Žižek
Kostková, Patricie ; Noble, Ivana (advisor) ; Hošek, Pavel (referee)
In the 21st century we lost the previously common view of the world - we no longer seem to understand ourselves nor have a consensus on values we have in common in our society. Our views of the world and ourselves are fragmented. Anglican theologians Richard Holloway, Rowan Williams and a Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek question our fragmented reality and identify reasons for the confusion over the role of freedom and choice, love and charities, remorse and forgiveness and selfunderstanding in our society. In their theology of the world they identify a phenomenon they call either a 'social miracle', an ultimate forgiveness or agape that seems to povide an overarching force bringing together the fragments of our lives and connecting us with the general condition of humanity - the struggle for wholeness and freedom.

God's Trinity from the Feminist Perspective
Knězů, Jaroslava ; Noble, Ivana (advisor) ; Opočenská, Jana (referee)
This paper God's Trinity from the Feminist Perspective is a try to draw direction and basic contours of feminist renewal of metaphorical speech about the Holy Trinity. The author draws especially from works of Cathryne M. LaCugna and Elisabeth A. Johnson. Target of the paper is to investigate feminist starting points and inclusive images as means of reviving trinitarian faith for present time. Deconstruction of Latin trinitarian theology of Sv. Augustine and Tomas Aquinas aimed at critique of detachment of immanent and economic Trinity in their works forms a basis for reconstruction of metaphorical speech on St. Trinity in metaphors of wisdom, friendship and perichoretic relation.

The Rediscovery of Symbol in Louis-Marie Chauvet
Bauerová, Kateřina ; Noble, Ivana (advisor) ; Hošek, Pavel (referee) ; Hušek, Vít (referee)
The main aim of my dissertation is to introduce, analyse, and critically evaluate the notion of symbol of a contemporary French sacramental theologian Louis-Marie Chauvet. He has significantly influenced the Western, especially Roman Catholic scene, but he is almost unknown in the Czech milieu. Chauvet's rehabilitation of a symbolic view of reality brings a possibility to speak about God's presence in a non- ideological way. He also brings a positive evaluation of body and corporality back into theology. In the first part of my work I map out the resources from which Chauvet draws in his notion of symbol. In particular I deal with Heidegger's early philosophy but also with Chauvet's use of psychoanalysis and his critical evaluation of older Thomist sacramental theology. The second part of my work is devoted to Chauvet's own notion of symbol. On the basis of his central works I analyse three topics linked with his approach to symbol: being, language and corporality. In the last part I critically appraise Chauvet's notion especially with respect to his use of Lacan's psychoanalytical theory. For some open questions that come out of this I look for alternatives in three French contemporary female authors. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

The Ecclesiological Opinions of Roger Haight S.J.
Kratochvíl, Lukáš ; Jandejsek, Petr (referee) ; Noble, Ivana (advisor)
Americký jezuita Roger Haight dokončil v roce 2008 třetí svazek svého díla o eklesiologii pod názvem Christian Community in History. V prvních dvou svazcích věnovaných historické a komparativní eklesiologii se Haight snaží najít souvislosti a změny v dějinách společnosti a v dějinách církve. Jeho cílem je zachytit církev v její dějinném kontextu, aby mohl postihnout vliv doby na její specifické uspořádání a podobu. Výsledkem tak je empirický soubor principů napomáhajících k úvahám o církvi v kterékoliv době. Záverečný svazek Haightova díla pak vychází z těchto principů, a s jejich pomocí se snaží popsat transdenominační církev. Ta jde napříč všemi církvemi, je jejich nejhlubším jádrem a vytváří kontinuitu s apoštolskou církví prvního století. Na základě společného jádra pak Haight argumentuje pro částečné společenství církví. Vyzývá církve, aby na základě toho co mají společného mezi sebou potvrdili částečné společenství, protože to co je pojí je mnohem důležitější než to co je rozděluje. Haightův závěrečný díl Christian Community in History je konstruktivní eklesiologií. Spolu s jeho předchozímu publikacemi Jesus Symbol of God a Dynamics of Theology pak představují pokus zůstat věrný apoštolské víře v dialogu s dnešním světem. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Possibilities and limits of a human knowledge of God and of speech about God in Ludwig Wittgenstein
Kopačková, Lucie ; Noble, Ivana (advisor) ; Kranát, Jan (referee)
This bachelor work analyses possibilities and limits of a human knowledge of God and of speech about God in Ludwig Wittgenstein. Wittgenstein as a key to teological language, is dealing with life and philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein. The theme of language is introduced in the perspective of Wittgenstein ́s early and later philosophy. It examines how he developed this theme in his first philosophical work Tractatus Logico Philosophicus and what kind of changes his later work published as Philosophical Investigations brought. The first biographical offers a reading of Wittgenstein ́s life in different periods, which had had the basic influence to his philosophical work. Subhead about his relationship to Christianity and the relogion as such concludes this part. The second part dealing with philosophical work about language is divided into two subheads. First introduces how Wittgenstein worked with the topic of language at the begining of his philosophical work. Then the second is about the move in his whole work and personal attitude which is characteristic for his later work. Short theological ecumenical eccursus concludes the second part and shows in which realms Wittgenstein transceds the limits of philosophy. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

"Is it Rational to Believe in God?". Epistemology, Metaphysics and Method in the Works of Bernard Lonergan
Nevrkla, Svatopluk ; Noble, Ivana (advisor) ; Kranát, Jan (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate interrelatedness between various concepts of God and metaphysical assumptions from which they have been derived. This will be done with special attention paid to philosophical work of Bernard Lonergan. On Lonergan's case I will show his solution of problematic presuppositions of scholastic understanding of God. In introduction I will summarize reasons that made me to choose this topic, goals of the thesis and methods I will use. First chapter will be dedicated to brief introduction of selected proofs of God's existence and their metaphysical premises on which they rest. Enlightenment critique of metaphysics will be described and its consequences for metaphysical proofs demonstrated. Second chapter will introduce context and goals of works of modern Canadian Jesuit theologian Bernard Joseph Francis Lonergan and his concepts of judgement and selfXaffirmation. Third chapter will be concerned with description of Lonergan's metaphysics and finally with some criticism of Lonergan's approach from perspective of postXmodern, hermeneutic, and linguistic philosophies. In conclusion I will confront Lonergan's results with older philosophies mentioned. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
