Modello di comunicazione nella prospettiva ecclesiologica
The Model of the Communication in the Ecclesiological Perspective

Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the idea of communication between God and man in the context of the Church, referring to various communication models, and in a special way to the model of understanding and interpretation of Gianni Losito, an Italian sociologist. First, the author tries to explain why this topic is important for contemporary theology and ecclesiology. In the next part of the article there is an attempt to describe and define two key concepts for the subject, namely what we mean by communication and audience (pubblico), which in theological terminology can be understood as a community. As you can see, these concepts are not unambiguous and one concise definition cannot be given due to the multiplicity of forms and ranges of the above-mentioned terms. In the last part there is a short description of different models of interpersonal communication and a wider description of one of them as, according to the author, the most useful and corresponding to the relationship between God and man and between individual human beings. The model of Gianni Losito describes very clearly two phases of the communication process, which is the process of understanding a given message and the process of its interpretation, which means that each person can extract from the given message what is most important or more appealing for him because of his life situation or condition human.
