Penser la tradition avec Walter Kasper
Pertinence d'une catholicité historiquement et culturellementouverte
By (author) C. Kalonji Nkokesha
The work explores the most crucial problems of fundamental contemporary theology as well as the self-understanding of the Church as a historical reality. The work also explores the specific relationships that are established between the “individual” and the “universal.” The hermeneutical (regarding the importance of language and culture), societal (the relationship between tradition and multiple societies in a postmodern context) and ecclesiastical issues (since it is the same concept of the Church) reinforce the current relevance of this analysis. French text.
English summary: What is tradition? What is its significance for human life and for pluralistic societies in an unprecedented gathering of cultures? How can the Church, as a symbol of universal salvation, make its catholicity more effective? Considering all these issues in a context characterized by an epistemological pluralism of thought, language and history, this book presents the essential determinations of a historically and culturally open catholicity. The work explores the most crucial problems of fundamental contemporary theology as well as the self-understanding of the Church as a historical reality. The work also explores the specific relationships that are established between the “individual” and the “universal.” The hermeneutical (regarding the importance of language and culture), societal (the relationship between tradition and multiple societies in a postmodern context) and ecclesiastical issues (since it is the same concept of the Church) reinforce the current relevance of this analysis. French description: Qu’est-ce que la tradition? Quelle est sa signification pour la vie humaine ainsi que pour les societes pluralistes dans la rencontre inedite des cultures? Comment, theologiquement, en partant de la tradition, l’Eglise, en tant que signe et instrument de salut universel, peut-elle rendre plus effective sa catholicite? Reprenant de maniere approfondie toutes ces questions dans un contexte epistemologique caracterise par un pluralisme de pensee, de langage et d’histoire, cet ouvrage (sur la tradition) vise … presenter les determinations essentielles d’une catholicite historiquement et culturellement ouverte. A ce titre, il touche aussi bien aux problemes les plus cruciaux de la theologie fondamentale contemporaine qu’… l’auto-comprehension de l’Eglise comme realite historique et … la question plus large, au sein meme de cette auto-comprehension, des rapports specifiques qui s’instaurent entre le particulier et l’universel. Les enjeux hermeneutique (avec l’importance du langage et de la culture), societal (sur les rapports entre tradition et societes multiples dans un contexte postmoderne) et ecclesial (puisqu’il en va de la conception meme de l’Eglise) ne font que renforcer l’actualite d’une telle reflexion.
