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

Heidegger’s concept of metaphysics as onto-theology based on necessary union of logic, ontology and theology demonstrates fundamental crisis of modern theodicy. Univocity of being, based on Avicennian epistemology of the Form, created in the second half of 13th century a new concept of divine Being. New way of thinking made an objective determination of God (esse obiective). Leibniz proposed a further step on the way of formalization in his theodicy. The formal ratio of God and that of human being became identical up to the certain point and God became responsible for all potential evil. Since Leibniz, modern theodicy has been determined by highly questionable concept of ontotheology that came into being at the beginning of 14th century (via moderna). Univocity and objectivity determine both the science of being and the modern theology.
