Abstract:

The text traces the ideas of the modern Protestant theologian Dorothee SΣ§lle (π‘€π‘¦π‘ π‘‘π‘–π‘˜ 𝑒𝑛𝑑 π‘Šπ‘–π‘‘π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘ π‘‘π‘Žπ‘›π‘‘) on the relationship between active and contemplative life (represented by the biblical characters Martha and Mary respectively) in relation to her conceptions of a socially oriented Christianity. A parallel is drawn with the famous ideas of Hannah Arendt (π‘‡β„Žπ‘’ π»π‘’π‘šπ‘Žπ‘› πΆπ‘œπ‘›π‘‘π‘–π‘‘π‘–π‘œπ‘›). Commonalities are sought in the appreciation of the active, operative aspect of life (in unity with its contemplative aspect).
