 PREDGOVOR

Svrha sastavqawa srpsko-engleskog i englesko-srpskog

teolo{kog re~nika jeste da se na jednom mestu sakupe reli-
gijski i bogoslovski pojmovi koji se ~esto prevode sa engle-
skog ili na engleski jezik. Prilikom sastavqawa re~nika
kori{}eni su prevodi teolo{kih tekstova ~iji autori dola-
ze iz svih krajeva sveta, a materwi jezik im nije nu`no engle-
ski. To zna~i da prevodi nekih re~i mo`da nisu najboqi mo-
gu}i, ali da su postali ve} ustaqeni ekvivalenti u ovoj ter-
minologiji.
Re~nik je zapravo stru~ni jezi~ki priru~nik eduka-
tivne namene, za bogoslovske u~enike i studente, odnosno
za prevodioce i nau~ne radnike koji se bave ovom temati-
kom. Nadamo se da }e se na ovaj na~in u{tedeti vi{e~asov-
ni trud pronala`ewa pravog termina. Re~nik je, naravno,
namewen i svima onima koji se zanimaju za hri{}an-
sku/pravoslavnu literaturu na engleskom jeziku, kao i
strancima koji `ele da saznaju vi{e o pravoslavnoj hri-
{}anskoj tradiciji i kulturi.
Re~nik sadr`i re~i i fraze koje se koriste u teksto-
vima sa religioznom tematikom i koje se odnose na najra-
zli~itije aspekte hri{}anskog `ivota. Osnovni korpus re-
~i ~ine dogmatski termini, ali je i veliki broj re~i iz
oblasti liturgike, hri{}anske umetnosti, etike, kanon-
skog prava, a ima ih i iz filosofije i psihologije. Postoji
i mawi broj termina iz protestantske, odnosno rimokato-
li~ke hri{}anske tradicije, i judaizma, koji su propra}e-
ni kra}im obja{wewem.

5
 Kada su posredi pravoslavni termini, neke odrednice
zapravo ne postoje u izvornom engleskom jeziku, ve} dolaze
iz gr~kog ili slovenskog jezika, te su transkribovane na en-
gleski (npr. acathistos = akatist; anamnesis = anamneza).
Svaka leksema pra}ena je engleskom skra}enicom za
vrstu re~i, tj. definisana kao imenica, zamenica, glagol,
pridev, predlog, prilog ili uzvik, a u verziji srpsko-en-
gleski dat je i rod imenice (mu{ki, `enski ili sredwi).
Spisak svih skra}enica posebno je naveden.
Ekvivalenti svake lekseme dati su u nastavku i odvo-
jeni zapetama (ako je re~ o sinonimima) ili ta~kom i zare-
zom (ako se radi o razli~itom zna~ewu). Uz neke ekvivalen-
te dati su primeri kori{}ewa re~i ili fraze u kojima se
ona koristi. Ponekad se iza ekvivalenta navodi referenca
koja upu}uje na drugu re~ sli~nog ili istog zna~ewa (cf. =
lat. uporedi).
Nadamo se da }e ovaj re~nik biti od koristi svima
onima koji se wime budu slu`ili.
