The parish of Visoko is mentioned in the list of pa-rishes of the Zagreb diocese from 1334, more specifically, in the Kalnik archdeaconry. The list assumes that the church existed as early as the year 1111. Archaeological excavations conducted in 2010 have investigated 14 graves that can be dated to the early modern period. Among the excavated graves, the burials of men, with an average life expectancy of 45.5 years, are predominant, followed by the burials of women, with an average life expectancy of 37.5 years, while only one burial of a child has been found. Of the 14 graves excavated, there were discoveries in half. The deceased were buried dressed and with their devotional objects. The discoveries in graves can be divided into functional objects, i.e., those related to everyday life, and devotional objects or objects associated with modern piety. Based on the analysis of the objects found in Visoko, it can be concluded that the believers there fully accepted the post-Tridentine piety and the pious customs of the time, as well as the dressing and burial customs. Nail remains suggest that they were mainly buried in coffins, sometimes in a shroud, not paying much attention to burial sites, which indicates that the graves were not marked.

In the time when new evangelisation is increasingly discussed, the author of this article directs his gaze towards the beginnings of the Church and the first kerygma, whose meaning and importance he presents in three parts. The first part presents the context in which the Early Christianity found itself and in which it tried to transmit the»memories of apostles«. Inculturation begins with preaching that brings a new turnabout. The first Christian invested, perhaps more than any other after him/her, immense efforts into proclaiming the kerygma: he/she suffered from the lack of freedom, lack of members, lack of strictly theological formation, lack of support by society, lack of means of communication. The kerygmatic effort of the Early Church has suffered from these lacks, but it has abounded in the Spirit and the testimony of faith about realities that can hardly be put into words and defined. The second part follows the proclamation of the»memory of apostles«or the Gospel from dialogue to the Credo. Dialogue with the world is led by courageous Christians, apostolic fathers, apologetes, and church fathers in general. The author focuses especially on apologetes that opened up the dialogue with enemies and those who thought differently. Many of apologetes found themselves on a hard terrain that was cultivated with great efforts, personal inspiration, and courage. They had countless interlocutors among Jews, pagans, Christians, and heretics. The result of tiresome and long-lasting dialogue was the official definition of proclaimed contents of faith, formed in the Credo. The third part points out the ultimate goal of kerygma, that is, the renewal of the Church and society. The renewal is achieved through conversion as a new way of living in relation to God and other people. It permeates the whole person and is followed by God's activity. This final part of the article, therefore, puts an emphasis on the caritative dimension of the Church that finds its foundational point for this dimension in the Eucharistic communion.

Clement's First Epistle to the corinthians can be interpreted in the context of the relation between early Christian epistolography and rhetorics, especially deliberative rhetorics. This type of rhetorics aims at stimulating will and emotions of its audience and calling it to act in the direction of preserving unity and stability of political (or ecclesial) community and those ways of living that are most loyal to paradigms established in the process of its formation. The influence on the audience in the state of conflict and call to action that leads to peace is achieved by the author through consistent arguments, emphasising the ethos and evoking memories of historical events and fig ures with which the audience can identify itself. Clement's Epistle possesses basic characteristics of deliberative rhetorics - it contains directedness to the context of the future, points out advantages and dangers of concrete activity, elaborates on catastrophic consequences that schismatic mindset can have in the community, and emphasises the paradigm of peace and unity as the way of overcoming the crisis.

The Benedictine Monastery of St Andrew in Rab was founded in the 11th/12th century on a site between the early Romanesque church and the city walls. Of the five big Benedictine abbeys that existed on the island, it is the only one that has survived and is still active. Its rich building history was until recently obscured by radical restoration in the 19th and 20th century. Conservation and restoration researches made possible the reconstruction of individual building phases. The monastery ranks among the most significant buildings of medieval and Renaissance architecture both on the island of Rab and in the wider region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Exploring the topic of faith in the First Letter of Peter, the author of this article speaks about the position of the recipients of the letter. He analyses their close sociological context as well as the broader historical context of social conditions in the Roman Empire. The article also gives an overview of the structure of the First Letter of Peter. Then it analyzes individual occurrences of the terms "faith/to believe" in their closest biblical-theological context. The focus is on faith as a means by which God's power protects us for salvation (1 Pet 1:5); faith that will gain praise and glory and honor (1:7); the purpose of faith -- that is, the salvation of souls (1:9); faith presented as knowledge (1:14); the relationship of faith and hope in God (1:20-21); and faith's final goal -- by faith and love the Christian enters into a spiritual house of holy priesthood (2:4-10). In the last section of the article the author gives a very concise overview of practical consequences, i.e. acts of faith as reflected in the specific attitude of Christians towards socio-political realities, and in the obligations of their own lives (such as slaves, women, men) and before the forthcoming eschaton.

This article is the text version of the author's discourse on ecclesiological and theological aspects of the Motu Proprio Ubicumque et semper given at the Catholic Theological Faculty in Sarajevo on November 18, 2011, during the theological colloquium entitled "New evangelization in the social context of Bosnia and Herzegovina". In the article the author seeks to demonstrate the connection between the Motu Proprio and the basic ideas and directions of the Second Vatican Council, as well as with some postconciliar Church documents, specifically the Apostolic Exhortation of Paul VI Evangelii nuntiandi. The author identifies the ecclesiological and theological aspects of Ubicumque et semper and presents them concisely. While Ubicumque et semper is a short letter, it is rich in content, striving to create a new horizon of Catholic thought and praxis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
