Drogi zbawienia. Soteriologiczne nadzieje Jana Józefa Szczepańskiego
Ways of Salvation. Soteriological Dilemmas and Hopes of Jan Józef Szczepański

Summary/Abstract: This article concerns the reading of Jan Józef Szczepański’s writings in the field of soteriological issues. Soteriology – initially present mainly in the sphere of religion – has nowadays gained wide social resonance and has become secularized. Using literary material (the short story Autograf [Autograph] is the starting point), essays and diaries; an attempt has been made to reconstruct the sources and contexts of the soteriological issues taken up by the writer. An attempt was also made to identify – on the basis of Roman Ingarden’s concept of metaphysical qualities and Charles Taylor’s concept of modern epiphany – the conditions and possibilities of the soteriological function of literature as declared by Szczepański.
