Theologica Wratislaviensia

Theologica Wratislaviensia is the academic journal of EST and has been published once a year beginning in 2006. This journal offers an educational supplement at EST to create an academic platform for exchanging ideas among researchers on various topics. The writings may be theological, philosophical, historical, and philological, as well as the popularization of scientific and educational achievements of faculty and associates of EST. This mainstream EST publication constitutes the scientific journal Theologica Wratislaviensia (ISSN 1734-4182), which was created by a series of monographs.

During the academic year 2011-2012, the scholarly journal of EST Theologica Wratislaviensia was successfully included on the official ranking list of qualified scientific journals overseen by the Polish Ministry of Science with a score of 20 points. Next, EST is seeking to move up the journal’s position on the ranking list by implementing specific ministerial requirements (such as independent peer reviews, implementing online versions, etc.).

Dear Reader,

We present you with the EST journal, Theologica Wratislaviensia. It is a scientific journal that aims to reflect on important issues and provoke debate primarily in contemporary theological thought. This journal is ecumenical just like the school. The statements in the journal are from invited theologians, philosophers, linguists, and teachers of various trends and provenance. We hope that in this way we can create an environment of open and honest dialogue, and polemics, going beyond dogmatic individual religious traditions. Such a dialogue, it seems, is much needed in our country (Poland), especially in the broader theological thought.
