Součkovo Bláznovství kříže a dnešní teologie paradoxu
Souček’s Foolishness of the Cross And Today’s Theology of Paradox

Summary/Abstract: The study deals with the analysis of paradox as a form of theological thinking in an older text by J.B. Souček. It compares the text with more recent works on the subject. Souček draws on the paradoxes of the New Testament, especially the paradox of the cross in Paul the Apostle, and sees in it the structure of the entire Christian message (which he conceived ethically). More recent studies do not offer such an overall synthesis, but analyze the paradox of Christianity on the sub­‑topics of biblical, systematic and fundamental theology. It is apparent that the expectations placed by the theology of the 1920s in the form of paradox were exaggerated, however, this approach allows a deeper understanding of certain aspects of the Christian message.
