Title: Karel Skalický : fundamental theology in the existential horizon of thinking Authors: Štěch, František Abstract: We are all parts of certain traditions. When we decide to walk some way, we are never completely alone. We have to consider those who preceded us on the roads and paths we walk. We have contact with those who walk with us. And last but not least, we have to think about those who will follow in our footsteps. In the process of our own education and growth we encounter those who teach us to read maps. And we meet others, who initiate us into the rules of traveling. Some present theories (maps) show us how to dwell in the labyrinth of the world and its landscapes that we eventually decide to travel and walk. Some skilful globetrotters know that maps are not the same as actual landscapes. They know that theories are not identical with practice, but both are necessary for us to have a complete picture of our surroundings. In other words, maps usually tell us that there is a river or a bush up ahead. But they do not tell us how deep the river crossing is, or how thick the bushes are for when we need to go through them.

Title: “Let us keep the feast” : some perspectives on the form and symbolism of the eucharistic bread in the early and Medieval West Authors: Paxton, Nicholas Abstract: To begin with, we should clarify the form of the Eucharistic bread before the Western resumption of unleavened bread (azymes). The use of artos instead of azyma in the four New Testament accounts of the Last Supper probably tells us that the type of bread used was not considered sufficiently important to merit specification, although Andrew McGowan believes that such a use “might reflect the assimilation of the institution narratives to meal practices of a more everyday nature... or may conversely be a remnant of a non-paschal tradition embedded in the Gospel accounts” – even though any such tradition, if it existed, would have been superseded well before the end of the first Christian century. Thus, leavened bread was considered acceptable for Eucharistic use.
