More DescriptionThe present volume is made up of three papers which were discussed at the Jerusalem seminar of the F.I.U.C. in 1985. The paper of Prof. Marcel Dumais intends to define the relationship between faith and culture according to the Acts of the Apostles. The article by Prof. Rosemary Goldie deals with the hitherto almost unexplored role of women in the inculturation of Christianity. The paper illustrates the irreversible trend towards greater self-awareness among women, even in the most traditional societies, and the relevance of this trend for inculturation. The paper of Prof. Andrzej Swiecicki situates the process of cultural change in the field of tension between the divine, ultimate perfection and the process of human history.
