Summary/Abstract: The study aims to clarify how widespread and to what depth Scheeben’s dogmatic­‑theologian legacy affected Czech Catholic theologians from 1948 up until the present. The research reveals that awareness of the person and the work of the German professor has declined. We make reference to a decade of authors who referred to Scheeben’s books. A novum represents four translations of parts of his work into Czech and Slovak. The most frequent themes were the Holy Spirit and grace, Sacramentology, while some authors touch on Trinitology, especially connected to spirituality.
