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 paper presents Hugo Rahner, one of the great theologians of the 20th century, from the perspective of ecclesiology, his important area of research. H. Rahner’s ecclesiology is shaped by a close relationship with Christ and it passes on varied imagery of the birth of the Church from the side of Christ, of the Church as a continuing reality of Christ, of her dramatic journey through the history in her weakness, of her scandalising visibility and her already victorious joy. This emphasis was eventually expanded in the Patristic symbols of the Church. Rahner’s theology is characterised by its strong kerygmatic focus, and it is intertwined with the theology of the Church Fathers that bring topical inspiration for the today’s Western Church.
