On the Current State of Research in Czech Baroque Homiletics with Focus on Methodology (Past and Present Research; a Summary of Research Tasks and Issues)
Streszczenie
The study summarizes findings by Michaela Hashemi (Horáková) on homiletic texts of the
early modern age, specifically the 17th century and the first half of the 18th century, with
respect to the research context of the Czech environment. The article emphasizes the use
of modern methods provided by literary theory which lead to relevant results. In the first
part, the author presents a description of the history and the present of domestic homiletic
research; the second part defines the key terms — Baroque homiletic texts and the exemplum
(conceived as a homiletic intertext). The third part concentrates on other individual research
tasks and issues relating to them, first in research of homiletic text production in a single
historically conceived area (specifically texts with the Cyril and Methodius theme) and then
territories of several different areas of the given period (from the end of the 17th to mid-18th
century) in cultural contact (the Nepomucene theme). The following sections discuss the
so-called topos of the dimension of Baroque mysticism (across Baroque literature genres, in
texts of both higher and lower styles). The conclusion summarizes the finding that the study
of homiletic texts employs classic methods (historical and philological) alongside modern
ones, primarily the concept of everyday life and intertextuality.
