AUC THEOLOGICA
AUC THEOLOGICA

AUC Theologica is a peer-reviewed journal for theology published twice a year. As we publish original papers in English, German, French, and Italian, our mission is to serve as a platform both for Czech researchers, who can present their research results in these languages, and for international contributors, who are invited to enter the academic theological discussion in the heart of Europe.

The journal focuses on a wide range of theological disciplines, such as systematic theology, biblical studies, patristic studies, pastoral and spiritual theology, religious education, church history, etc. Within these fields, the journal seeks to reflect the current theological questions and problems, which often requires interdisciplinary approaches. Supporting the intersection of various theological disciplines, we thus also welcome theological papers touching other academic fields including philosophy, sociology, literary studies, and science.

Each issue consists of two sections. The thematic section presents papers of the same focus. The section called ‘Varia’ invites papers dealing with various theological themes from the perspective of all Christian traditions. Our current and past issues are approachable for free on this website in the form of Open Access.

abstract

This article is about Antonin Salajka (1901–1975). This author was the first czech catholic priest laureated in Pontifical Institute of Oriental Studies in Rome (in 1930). Our paper first presents Antonin Salajka’s life and then introduces his work. The aim is on the Christian East, as half of his scientific work focused on this theme (cca 280 item). Next, our effort in this article aims at a detailed analysis of author’s conception and reasons for the study of the Christian East. He related his study to a great extent to the study of church Slovanic. The fundamental elements of Salajka´s conception were: (1) history of orthodox churches, variety of orthodox liturgical traditions, reasons for the so called East-West schism of 1054; (2) deeper knowledge of orthodox theology in a so-called comparative dogmatic theology; (3) introduction of his endeavour towards unification of all christian churches. Finally this article presents Salajka’ project aimed at the establishment of Institute for study of the Christian East in the 1940s in Prague.
