20.500.12556/RUL-108989 Simbolna teologija in povezovalna moč umetnosti Theology of Symbol and the connecting power of art Spoznavanje, ki se dogaja preko simbola in daje prostor ne le razmišljanju ampak tudi umetniškemu izražanju, se kaže kot pot, ki bi lahko v našem racionalističnem času namesto delnega (parcialnega) spoznavanja ponudila celostno (integralno) spoznanje stvarnosti in Stvarnika. Simbolno spoznanje je blizu teologiji, saj dopušča zedinjenje dveh svetov, ki pa vendar ostajata ločena. Ustvarjeno je od Boga, vendar pa je prostor njegovega razodevanja, saj ga je sposobno sprejeti. Ta sposobnost se v vsej polnosti razodeva v utelešenju (inkarnaciji). V inkarnaciji je presežen prepad med Stvarnikom in ustvarjenim. Tako more vsaka stvar na nek način postati "zakramentalna", saj je odsev Božje prisotnosti in sledi tega, kar on pusti v svojih delih. Naš besednjak in naša razumska obdelava bosta vedno nezadostna za izraženje Božje resničnosti. Bog vedno presega to, kar moremo o njem izreči ali misliti. Toda naš čeprav slabotni besednjak vendar ohranja moč, da prikliče in stori prisotno tisto, kar pripoveduje. Božji glas nam govori v mejah in ujetosti človeške izkušnje. Greh je zgradil zid med človekom in Bogom zid, ki ga je Kristus prišel zrušit s svojo inkarnacijo in vsem svojim odrešilnim delom. Kristus, v čigar skrivnosti se združujeta Bog in človek, daje zadnji smisel stvarjenju. To zedinjenje vsega v Kristusu skuša razložiti krščanska likovna umetnost, za katero se zdi, da se navdihuje ob pravoslavni ikoni. S Kristusovim prihodom materija postaja izraz, pripoved o ljubezni med Bogom in človekom. Ta združitev se izraža in razodeva v umetnini. Simbolno gledati pomeni zajemati iz pojavne stvarnosti, ne da bi se zaustavili na empirični površini stvari, ampak komunicirati z močjo življenja, ki se posreduje v njih in preko njih. Zato je v tej umetnosti pot simbola pot celostnega spoznavanja, ki Kristusa postavlja v središče vesolja in zgodovine. Cognition through symbols, which allows thinking as well as artistic expression, appears as a way towards a comprehensive (integral) knowledge of reality and the Creator, rather than merely a partial one, which is so characteristic of our era of rationalism. Cognition through symbols is familiar to theology, since it allows for the union of two worlds while keeping them separated. Although creation is other than God, it is capable of accepting its Creator and, therefore, a place of His manifestation. This capability is fully evident in the Incarnation which bridges the gulf between the Creator and His creature. Every creature is »sacramental« in that it reflects God's presence and bears traces of his activity. Due to its limitations, human vocabulary and rational processes will never be able to adequately express the reality of God who transcends all our concepts and utterances about Him. Yet, even our weak vocabulary is capable of summoning and making present what it refers to. God speaks to us within the limits and the entrapment of our experience. Sin created a wall between man and God, which was torn down by Christ's incarnation and redemption. Christ, in whose mystery God and man became one again, gives the ultimate meaning to all creation. Christian visual art, which seems to be inspired by the Orthodox icon, strives to express and explain this union of all things in Christ. With His coming, matter has become an expression, an account of love between God and man. Observation through symbols is an attempt to grasp the essence from the appearance – without stopping at the empirical surface of things – by communicating with the power of life conveyed in and through them. The way of symbols in art is, therefore, a way of integral cognition which places Christ at the center of the universe and history simbol teologija simbola ikone umetnost celostno spoznavanje symbol Theology of symbol icon art integrated cognition true false false Slovenski jezik Angleški jezik Članek v reviji 2019-08-18 15:25:47 2019-08-18 15:25:50 2022-08-21 03:39:11 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2014 0 0 Str. 135-143 št. 1/2 Letn. 69 2014 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 27-135 2335-4127 URN:NBN:SI:DOC-CYEH0PJF 10181891 268194560 RAZ_Stegu_Tadej_i2014.pdf RAZ_Stegu_Tadej_i2014.pdf 1 B97DD94422C94C1B4720F97CC98F7873 0da6ba075a65fc5bd43bf8bbec9733f918c76361fcd0eb03717b9bf99c3435e5 c0cd6106-a1b6-11eb-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=120193 https://www.dlib.si/details/URN:NBN:SI:DOC-CYEH0PJF 1 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=120194 http://www.teof.uni-lj.si/uploads/File/Edinost/69/135-144.pdf 1 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=120196 Teološka fakulteta Edinost in dialog 0 0 0
