The Question of Teaching the Law of the Catholic Eastern Churches at the Theological Seminary of the Latin Rite

  • Leszek Adamowicz

Abstract

The paper was delivered at an assembly of the lectures of canon law in Łowicz in 1996. The author deals with the problem of teaching the law of Catholic Eastern Churches in the theological seminaries of the Latin Church. After the Code of the Canons of the Eastern Churches had been promulgated in 1990, a necessity emerged to include the new law for Catholics of the Eastern rite into the instruction of the candidates for the Latin clergy. Some canons of CCEOr may also be used for the Latin clergy (37; 41; 207; 322, § 1; 432; 696, §§ 1 and 2; 830, § 1916, § 5; and 1465), some supplement the legal gaps, and others refer to the interrite relations.
