Interpretacje gniewu we współczesnej refleksji o duchowości
Interpretations of Anger in the Contemporary Reflection on Spirituality

Summary/Abstract: This article draws attention to the most important aspects of the theme of anger as found in contemporary reflections on the spiritual life. The issues discussed are questions of terminology, the problem of the nature of anger, and the importance of anger within Christian spiritual life. The reality of anger as a destructive force raises the question of how to counter it: What is a wise strategy for reducing its destructive power? What possible correctives or remedies are also in accordance with genuine Christian spirituality? In contrast, when anger is given a positive interpretation (“righteous/holy anger”), the article presents certain conditions or criteria that can help clarify when it is possible to talk about the positive role of anger in Christian spirituality.
