Name

[edit]

According to pl wiki entry on the village of pl:Stary Wielisław (pl wiki has no entry on this church), the name is kościół parafialny pod wezwaniem św. Katarzyny Aleksandryjskiej , which would translate to Parish Church of St. Catherine of Alexandria in in Stary Wielisław. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 19:05, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus: In Wiki Commons it is named as Saint Catherine of Alexandria church in Stary Wielisław --Elmepi (talk) 23:18, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Blast from the past :) Of course, Commons is not reliable. Right now I have no thoughts on this. @Nihil novi? Thinking who may be interested and knowledgeable about the relevnt naming criteria. @Medusahead? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 00:50, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks for reacting of blasts from the past :-) --Elmepi (talk) 17:07, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Shrine

[edit]

en:National_shrine knows 13 International shrines not 8; the given references knows only 6 in 2013 ([[1]], in 2024 there are 7, but there is no "Shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows in Stary Wielisła" mentioned. --Elmepi (talk) 23:18, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, it is confusing but the references knows "Shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows in Stary Wielisła, Church of St. Catherine of Alexandria" [2] --Elmepi (talk) 23:41, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Names

[edit]

The Polish Wikipedia article "Parafia św. Katarzyny w Starym Wielisławiu" states that "Kosciol parafialny pw Sw. Katarzyny Aleksandryjskiej ... [j]est takze znany jako Sanktuarium Matki Boskiej Bolesnej."

Elmepi's source #2 above renders this as "Church of St. Catherine of Alexandria", "International Shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows".

A case of theological "split personality"?

"A national shrine is a Catholic church or other sacred place which has met certain requirements and is given this honor by the national episcopal conference to recognize the church's special cultural, historical, and religious significance."
It would seem we are dealing with a religious supercategory and that our "Kosciol parafialny pw Sw. Katarzyny Aleksandryjskie" (Church of St. Catherine of Alexandria) is "one of eight International shrines of the Roman Catholic Church".
Our church's principal name would therefore seem to be "Church of St. Catherine of Alexandria" in Stary Wielisław.

So the "Church of St. Catherine of Alexandri" ist the shirine "Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes" or does the Church contain the shrine. --Elmepi (talk) 17:07, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
