Rowan Williams

    14. jún 1950

    Rowan Williams je uznávaný básnik a teológ, ktorého dielo sa hlboko zaoberá otázkami viery, identity a zmyslu ľudskej existencie. Jeho poézia sa vyznačuje introspektívnou hĺbkou a bohatým jazykom, často skúma zložité vzťahy medzi duchovným a svetským životom. Williams sa vo svojej tvorbe snaží prepojiť teologické myslenie s umeleckým vyjadrením, čím čitateľom ponúka podnetné vhľady do ľudskej skúsenosti. Jeho literárny prínos spočíva v schopnosti sprostredkovať komplexné myšlienky prístupnou a pôsobivou formou.

      Křest, Bible, eucharistie, modlitba. Esej o křesťanské identitě z pera někdejšího arcibiskupa z Canterbury. Co znamená by´t křesťan? Co odlišuje křesťanství od jiny´ch vyznání? Co je společné křesťanům všech míst a všech dob? Rowan Williams neodpovídá vy´kladem věroučny´ch článků, ale toho, co křesťané dělají: křtí — čtou Bibli — slaví večeři Páně — modlí se. Knížka jeho citlivě napsany´ch úvah, čerpající z pokladu společné křesťanské tradice, je přehledná a srozumitelná, současně však čtenáře zve na hlubinu a nespokojuje se s laciny´mi odpověďmi.
