Abstract

The choice between the hermeneutics of continuity and the hermeneutics of rupture as a tool for interpreting theological issues is a very current topic in the context of the challenges facing the Church today. Although the very concept of “hermeneutics of continuity” was coined by Pope Benedict XVI, its practical application has characterized the magisterium of the Church since antiquity. The problem of choosing a hermeneutical model also touches upon the theology of creation. The article indicates the importance of the interpretation of the theology of creation for contemporary theological and anthropological discourse. It further touches on the problem of selecting hermeneutics appropriate for Catholic theology and shows the hermeneutics of continuity as a tool used by Roman popes over the centuries to interpret the theology of creation.
