UST’s Saint John Paul II Institute partners to publish inaugural scientific journal ‘Wojtyla Studies’

UST-Houston’s Saint John Paul II Institute announces the inaugural issue of its new scientific journal: Wojtyla Studies.

Wojtyła Studies is an open access, double-blind, peer-reviewed journal published on a semi-annual basis. It is a joint venture of the Saint John Paul II Institute and The Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow (Poland).

The periodical is accessible from both the Pontifical University of John Paul II and the University of St. Thomas websites.

The scientific board is made up of world-renowned Wojtylian scholars both from the USA and Europe.

“One of the aims of the journal is to invite other scholars, including scholars from other continents who are interested in the thought of Karol Wojtyła, to take part in a critical exchange of analyses and opinions,” Dr. John Hittinger, director of the SPJII Institute, said. “In this way, the editors would like to revive, consolidate and strengthen the consideration of Karol Wojtyła’s legacy worldwide and show that his multifaced message is relevant regarding contemporary issues.”

The journal is divided into five parts:

· philosophical issues

· theological issues

· cultural issues

· miscellanea

· reviews

All articles are always open access: https://wojtylastudies.org/index.php/wojst/issue/view/1
