    Conceptio Mariae or Sanctificatio Mariae? Peregrine of Opole’s Relations with the Dominican Studium Generale in Bologna
    (Wydawnictwo KUL, 2024) Kochaniewicz, Bogusław; Kiejkowski, Paweł
    This study aims to elucidate the connection between Peregrine of Opole, a Polish Dominican active at the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries, and the studium generale in Bologna through an analysis of his sermons. The focus is on the concept of the sanctification of Mary (sanctificatio Mariae), which appears in both Peregrine’s sermons and the writings of Bologna Dominicans such as Bombolognus of Bologna and Jacopo da Varazze. By comparing interpretations of this concept, the study identifies significant similarities that suggest Peregrine of Opole likely completed his theological studies at the Dominican studium generale in Bologna during the late 13th century.

    Conception of Mary According to Nicolaus Biceps OP in the Context of the Dominican Education System
    (Wydawnictwo KUL, 2024) Kochaniewicz, Bogusław; Łoza, Agnieszka; Zega, Włodzimierz
    The aim of the article is to present the interpretation of the conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary contained in the commentary on the Sentences by Nicolaus Biceps in the context of the educational system of the Dominican Order. The specified research goal was achieved in the following way. First, the system of intellectual formation in the Dominican Order was analysed based on the resolutions of the general chapters, and then the relevant contained in the 14th-century work was presented. This allowed us to capture the position of the Czech Dominican, his method of argumentation, the sources on which he based his reflection, as well as the theological problems he had to face when commenting on the issue of the conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary at the University of Prague. Finally, this approach allowed us to find an answer to the question to what extent the Dominican educational system influenced the interpretation of the conception of Mary by medieval Dominican theologians and the consolidation of their negative position towards the Immaculate Conception of Mary.

    The Dominican Stance on the Immaculate Conception of Mary: Insights from Selected Sermons (13th-15th Centuries)
    (Wydawnictwo KUL, 2024) Kochaniewicz, Bogusław
    It is commonly believed that in the debate on the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, representatives of the Order of St. Francis were supporters of the Marian privilege, while the Dominicans were against it. The aim of this article is to verify this opinion by analyzing selected Dominican homilies from the 13th –15th centuries, seeking answers to the questions: has the maculist position expressed by preachers been maintained over the centuries? What caused Dominicans to remain unchanged in their views, despite the gradual spread of the opinion about the Immaculate Conception of Mary, which was finally officially accepted by the Church? What role did Saint’s opinion play? Thomas Aquinas to the position of later Dominicans? The results of the analysis of medieval Dominican sermons allow us to consider the opinion that has so far been widespread as one-sided and superficial. The Dominican position is much more complex.
