Abstrakt

The author discusses the problem of the appropriate hermeneutic of the Second Vatican Council enabling a correct understanding of the concept of reform proposed by the Vaticanum II. Addressing two aspects of the Council: its doctrine and its character of an “event of grace”, the author points to the Council’s pastoral nature as the key to the interpretation reconciling those two allegedly opposing perspectives. In this context, the reform is conceived of as an increase in the self-awareness of the Church and her sanctity.
