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

The publication of Amoris laetitia initiated numerous discussions in the circles of theologians who focus on the question of the possibility of sacraments for remarried divorced couples. One of the fundamental theological questions in reference to marriage is the problem of the indissolubility. The apostolic exhortation shows no chapter or any point about the indissolubility of marriage but Amoris laetitia in numerous places talks about the problem of divorce and the stable indissoluble character of marriage. The article presents doubts of Polish moral theologians with regard to the indissolubility of marriage and attempts to explain and to answer them. The problem concerns two kinds of arguments. The first one is the language and ideas used in Amoris laetitia for presenting the indissolubility of marriage. The second line concerns the impaired indissolubility of marriage, which for the Polish moral theologians is the possibility of sacraments for remarried divorced people.
