Beauty as a Way of Communicating the Revelation of God
Original language description
This article aims at discovering a possible correlation between the fundamental theological issue of God‘s revelation and the aesthetic phenomenon of beauty. The central inter-connecting topic is communication, which is also manifested at the theological level. At first, the article presents a study of the opinions of leading theologists on the issue of the temporality of God‘s revelation, which appears as a kind of sacred communication between God and His crea-tion in the history of salvation, through the incarnation of Jesus Christ and the gift of sending the Holy Spirit. The following sections of the article focus on looking for interconnections between the principle of God‘s self-sharing and beauty as one of the transcendentals presented in the work of Swiss theologist Hans Urs von Balthasar. Subsequently, the article finds a symbol as a tool of this sacred communication, which draws inspiration from the world of art. As in the case of the Christian religion, it applies communication through symbols to address related content.
