Description
Summary:The reader of this article has the opportunity to get acquainted with the ecumenical approach adopted by the Christian Churches over the past decades, particularly by the Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church, in order to establish a common date for the Feast of Holy Easter through which they have actually given evident expression to their desire for the realization of ecumenical Christian unity. From the texts resulting from conferences and theological consultations attended by the representatives of the Christian Churches, the reader can also learn about the testimonies provided by the liturgical and canonical Tradition of the Ecumenical Church of the first centuries, regarding the date of the Holy Easter celebration in illo tempore, which remains prime documentary source of the Easter date determination, too. In assessing the statements made by the relevant literature regarding the Easter date determination, I have taken into account not only the results offered by theological and historical papers, but also those provided by the science of astronomy, in the times past and nowadays.
Les lecteurs du présent article ont la chance de faire connaissance avec le processus oecuménique réalisé par les Églises chrétiennes durant les dernières décennies, notamment par l’Église orthodoxe et l’Église latine, qui veulent parvenir à établir la date commune de la célébration de la fête de Pâques, grâce à quoi on a exprimé le désir oecuménique authentique de l’unité des chrétiens. Des textes qui sont le résultat de nombreux colloques et consultations théologiques entre les représentants des Églises chrétiennes les lecteurs peuvent aussi apprendre sur les témoignages procurés par la Tradition liturgique et théologique de l’Église oecuménique datant des premiers siècles du christianisme concernant la date de la célébration de la fête de Pâques à cette époque-là. Ces documents constituent la source primaire servant à indiquer la date de la fête de Pâques. En évaluant la valeur des constatations se trouvant dans ces documents, j’ai pris en considération non seulement les articles théologiques et historiques, mais aussi ceux relevant de l’astronomie, aussi bien anciens que contemporains.
I lettori del presente articolo hanno l’opportunità di conoscere il processo ecumenicov condotto dalle chiese cristiane nel corso degli ultimi decenni, in particolare dalla Chiesa ortodossa e dalla Chiesa cattolico-romana, processo che mira a stabilire una data comune di celebrazione delle feste pasquali attraverso cui è stato espresso il desiderio autentico di unità ecumenica dei cristiani. Dai testi che sono il risultato di numerose conferenze e consultazioni teologiche tra i rappresentanti delle chiese cristiane i lettori possono anche venire a conoscenza delle testimonianze fornite dalla Tradizione liturgica e teologica della Chiesa ecumenica dei primi secoli del cristianesimo riguardanti la data di celebrazione della Pasqua in quell’epoca. Tali documenti costituiscono la fonte primaria che serve a definire la data delle feste di Pasqua. Durante la valutazione del valore delle affermazioni che si trovano in quei documenti ho considerato non soltanto gli articoli teologici e storici, ma anche quelli concernenti l’astronomia, sia del passato, sia contemporanei.
