Basic knowledge about translations. At least the basic knowledge of one foreign language.

This translatory-course is dedicated to the issues of interreligious dialogue in Asia. The English title indicates that we will essentially refer to the English language, although the explanation will be given basically in Polish. Other languages will also be considered. The aim of the translatory is to get acquainted with the specificity of concepts related to inter-religious dialogue, especially practiced in Asia.

God of Christian revelation "translated" himself to the "language" of people becoming human. Jesus Christ himself became the first "translation" of God's truth for people. "Translatability" is one of the principles of the development of the Christian faith.

We will be guided by the instructions found in the Apostolic Exhortation "Evangelii Nuntiandi" of pope Paul VI (no. 63 and 65) and in the Encyclical "Redemptoris Missio" of John Paul II (no. 52-53). We will analyze different texts being interested not so much in their literary meaning, but above all in their theological significance.
