U članku se polazi od suvremenog dijagnosticiranja stanja u humanističkim znanostima u kojima je, prema Cliffordu Geertzu, došlo do »zamućivanja žanrova«. Zatim se, da bi se pokušalo uputiti u izvore ...promjena, osvrće na osnovne dvadesetostoljetne misaone tendencije. One se nastoje egzemplificirati ponajprije filozofijom Martina Heideggera te u znatno manjoj mjeri postmodernim tendencijama (Jacques Derrida, Giles Deleuze). U konačnici donosi se jedno novo upućivanje u humanistiku, zasnovano na kršćanskoj tradiciji. Pritom se polazi od novog, kršćanskog razumijevanja tjelesnosti.
The article starts from the modern diagnosis of the situation in the humanities in which, according to Clifford Geertz, there has been a »blurring of genres«. Then, in order to try to refer to the sources of changes, the author looks back at the basic twentieth-century thought tendencies. Those tendencies are exemplified primarily by the philosophy of Martin Heidegger and to a much lesser extent by Jacques Derrida and Giles Deleuze. Finally, the article brings a new understanding of the humanities based on the Christian tradition. The starting point is a new, Christian understanding of the flesh.

The article analyzes the controversy between Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Mollendorff and Friedrich Nietzsche, which began after the publication of Nietzsche’s first book Die Geburt der Tragödie aus dem ...Geiste der Musik (1872), followed by the controversy between Walter Jackson Bate and Paul de Man on the occasion of the publication of Bate’s article The Crisis in English Studies (Harvard Magazine 85, 1982). With the help of the two polemics, the author outlines the basic guidelines in the nineteenth-century and twentieth-century understanding of philology. Finally, the article brings the author’s own view of philology from the point of view of Christian tradition, that is, the evangelical statement: καὶ ὁ λόγος σὰρξ ξγένετο (John 1,14).
U članku se prvo donose dosadašnji uvidi u
Marulićev
Dijalog o Herkulu
, pri čemu
se znatnija pozornost posvećuje radu Bratislava Lučina " Marulićev
Hercules Moralisatus (o alegoriji u Dijalogu o ...Herkulu)" (1993). Zatim se
prikazuje patrističko-medievalna tradicija tumačenja alegorije i tropologije.
Konačno, iznosi se zaključak da Marulić
Dijalogom
moguće ne ocrtava samo kršćansko odbacivanje humanističkih tendencija
ekstendiranja alegorije na mitologiju, nego i odbacivanje tropološkog tumačenja
"pjesničkih bajki i izmišljotina".
The paper opens with an introduction to the
previous research on Marulić’s
Dialogus de Hercule a Christicolis superato
,
where more attention is given to Bratislav Lučin’s work
Marulićev Hercules
Moralisatus (o alegoriji u Dijalogu o Herkulu)
. Then we focus on the
patristic-medieval tradition of interpreting allegory and tropology. Finally, we
conclude that in the
Dialogus
Marulić rejects not only the humanistic
tendencies of extensions of allegory to mythology, but also the humanistic
tropological interpretation of mythology.

Perivoj od slave: zbornik Dunje Fališevac (ur. Tomislav Bogdan, Ivana Brković, Davor Dukić, Lahorka Plejić Poje), FF press, Zagreb, 2012., 540 str.
After the discovery of the Perast and Milan manuscripts, namely the complete text of Vetranović's Istorija od Dijane, not much has been written about this dramatic work. This paper focuses on a scene ...near the end of the play which describes Mercury's intervention after Diana frees Cupid. The intervention of the messengers of the Gods invites a procreative interpretation of Eros, which is a certain specificity in relation to other Croatian and, to go even further, other pastorals of the sixteenth century.
Paul Ricoeur je svojom fenomenološkom hermeneutikom izvršio značajan utjecaj na biblijsku egzegezu. U radu se stoga prvo analizira njegova studija Biblical Hermeneutics (1975.) u kojoj su ...egzemplificirane osnovne točke Ricoeurove hermeneutike i njezine primjene na biblijske tekstove. Iako se drži da je takva hermeneutika važan korektiv tzv. strukturalističke ideologije za koju autonomija teksta podrazumijeva potpuno dokidanje referencijalne dimenzije jezika, u članku se ističe da ona nije dostatna i da zanemaruje inkarnacijsku logiku. Stoga se sugerira da biblijska hermeneutika treba ne samo pisani tekst vratiti diskursu nego uputiti u Tijelo, koje nije puka interpretativna zajednica, već događanje »novog stvaranja«. Bivanjem u Tijelu »rađa« se jedna nova – tjelesna hermeneutika.
With his phenomenological hermeneutics, Paul Ricoeur had an important influence on Biblical exegesis. The article, therefore, first, analyses his study, Biblical Hermeneutics (1975), which exemplifies the main points of Ricoeur’s hermeneutics and its application to Biblical texts. Although it is generally considered that this kind of hermeneutics is an important corrective to the so-called structuralist ideology for which the autonomy of a text presupposes a complete termination of the referential dimension of language, the article points out that phenomenological hermeneutics is not sufficient and that it ignores the incarnational logic. Consequently, it suggests that Biblical hermeneutics needs to not only return the written text to discourse but also to point towards the Body, which is not a mere interpretative community but an event of the »new creation«. By being in the Body, a new hermeneutics of the body is being »born«.
Based on the works of Stanley Romaine Hopper, Amos Niven Wil-der and David LeRoy Miller, the article introduces the programmatic determinants of theopoetics: 1) our topology of being has changed; 2) ...the Western consciousness is being transformed; 3) what matters in interpretation is the psychic depth which achieves modalities of identification through the power of imagination; 4) our theo-logoi belong to the realm of mythopoetic expressions and, therefore, theo-logos is not theo-logical but theo-poetic. The article then points to the contribution of such a project (a renewal of interest for imagination, correction of Bultmann’s programme of demythologization and poststructuralist »closing« into the text, shift towards socially relevant theology, understanding of the body beyond the Cartesian dualism of res extensa – res cogitans, emphasizing the importance of doxology, thanksgiving, experience and the everyday). Finally, the article points out a needed correction of the theopoetics project by distinguishing between the biblical and poetic discourse.
This presentation discusses the views of three renowned authors James Kugel, Robert Alter, and Jan Fokkelman known for their literary-critical approach to the Bible, concerning biblical poetry. ...According to Kugel, looking at the Bible through the lens of division into poetry and prose (lyrical and epic literature) means looking at it wrongly. He maintains that even meticulous analyses of parallelism can be distorted if viewed through this lens. Therefore, Kugel asserts that there is no poetry in the Bible but rather a continuum of loosely connected parallel structures in what we see as prose sections and heightened rhetoric in what we often erroneously consider verses. According to Alter, biblical poetry is based on semantic parallelism. However, he points out that poetic expression deliberately avoids complete parallelism, just as language resists mere synonyms by introducing subtle differences between related terms. In contrast, Fokkelman believes that combining prose and poetry, and even transitioning between them, is possible because most Hebrew sentences contain two to eight words and are usually linked in sequences through parataxis (using and and but and then). All three opinions lead to the conclusion that biblical poetry, like prose, is to a large extent sui generis, and that any distinction between poetry and prose, if it exists at all, is not of the same nature as in Western literary culture and it is, therefore, inappropriate to refer to prosimetrum in the Bible.
