Magdalena Dziaczkowska | Theology of the Nation: The Role of the Catholic Church in Poland in Shaping & Preserving Polish National Identity
In this lecture, Magdalena Dziaczkowska, phd-student at CTR, explores the way in which the Catholic Church in Poland has contributed to the shaping of Polish national identity, safeguarded that notion and conferred a theological meaning on it. It will briefly examine historical circumstances behind this development, and will conclude by pointing to the challenges which the theologization of Polishness poses to the Catholic Church in Poland today.
