Forgiveness by Željko Mardešić
Ante Vučković
Sažetak
Željko Mardešić does not debate the notion of forgiveness. He does not compare different possible understandings of forgiveness. He takes forgiveness as a criterion for judgment of Church itself. But, forgiveness appears first in the context of his own understanding of Christianism as well as in his own Christian life. Forgiveness is a Christian way of communication with the past. In the Croatian church there exists a phenomenon of return to the past, of a combative, unforgiving image of Christianism, although these are still important signs related to forgiveness and seeking ways for understanding other's suffering. The article departs from explaining various concepts of forgiveness and shows when and in which context the notion of forgiveness in Željko Mardešić's work appears as a criterion for consideration of Christianism and its role in a specific society.
