Pastoral and research connections of Cardinal Karol Wojtyła, Pope John Paul II, with the Church in Upper Silesia. Research reconnaissance

Summary/Abstract: Cardinal Karol Wojtyła had a considerable impact on the development of the universal and local Church, strengthening the bond between the Churches of the Metropolis of Krakow. The pontificate of John Paul II gave a new direction of the papacy by opening the Church to ethical, moral, philosophical and social problems. Encyclicals, exhortations, addresses, pastoral letters and the whole pastoral and theological heritage of the Holy Father have been an incentive to undertake further research by academics and students of the Faculty of Theology of the University of Silesia in Katowice. The results of these studies are reflected in the pages of “Śląskie Studia Historyczno-Teologiczne” and the dissertations of the Faculty of Theology of the University of Silesia. The problems addressed by the Pope have inspired the local academic community to reflect on the papal teaching.
