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 aim of the present paper is to find a way of the theological method after Ludwig Wittgenstein’s remarks, especially in his Philosophical Investigations. As he maintains, language and human behaviour is connected, and so we cannot judge religious discourse without observing other nonverbal phenomena. We focused on works and authors who influenced Wittgenstein’s thoughts such as William James and James G. Frazer; and we briefly introduced to Wittgenstein’s argumentation against scientism. Hlavním cílem tohoto článku je najít podobu teologické metody, která by vzala v potaz pozdní myšlení Ludwiga Wittgensteina, zejména jeho Filosofická zkoumání. Rakouský autor je přesvědčen, že jazyk je úzce spojen s lidským jednáním, a proto není možné posuzovat náboženský diskurs, aniž bychom bedlivě pozorovali nonverbální projevy, které tento diskurs provázejí. Zaměřili jsme se na díla autorů, kteří ovlivnili Wittgensteinovo myšlení, jako byl William James nebo James G. Frazer, a představili jsme také Wittgensteinovu argumentaci proti scientismu.
