Heilige, Heiliges und Heiligkeit in spätantiken Religionskulturen

Was das Heilige ist und wie man darüber sprechen kann, ist eine offene Frage in der religionswissenschaftlichen und theologischen Forschung. Jenseits der klassischen Entwürfe von Durkheim, Otto oder Eliade kann Heiliges heute nur in multiperspektivischer Betrachtung angemessen untersucht werden. Die Beiträge zu diesem Band analysieren Diskurse über Heiliges in spätantiken Religionskulturen: griechisch-römische Religion, Judentum und Christentum. Terminologien, Handlungen und Reflexionen in Bezug auf Heiliges werden in ihrem jeweiligen religiösen Bezugssystem thematisiert, aber darüber hinaus auch miteinander ins Gespräch gebracht. Hierfür dienen Kategorien wie Zeit, Ort, Individuum und Gruppe der Zuordnung der Befunde. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt zudem auf quellensprachlichen und forschungsinternen Begrifflichkeiten von Heiligem sowie auf der geschichtlichen Dynamik von Heiligkeitsvorstellungen. Dieses interdisziplinäre Vorgehen macht Diskontinuitäten und Kontinuitäten des Diskurses über „das Heilige“ in der Vielfalt seiner Erscheinungsformen präziser als bisher identifizierbar.

"Another Way": The Pneumatology of Deleuzean Minoritarian Communal Interpretation in Scripture, the 16th Century Radical Reformation, and Alternative 21st Century Anabaptist Community

This dissertation proposes a constructive theology of the Holy Spirit called the "pneumatology of minoritarian communal interpretation," the alternative creation of meaning within an oppressive majority context. It illustrates the convergence of Deleuzean philosophy with Anabaptist pneumatology and media communal interpretation theory in three particular locations: 1) selected mentions of the Holy Spirit in the Hebrew Bible and Christian New Testament; 2) the 16th century Radical Reformation; and 3) "Another Way," a 21st century alternative Anabaptist group focused around the spiritual discussion of art and popular media. Chapter One outlines the three theories. Chapter Two examines the Holy Spirit in the Hebrew Bible, particularly 1 Samuel 8, the book of Ezekiel, and the Gospel narratives. Chapter Three examines the pneumatological writings of the Radical Reformers, concentrating particularly on their theologies of the intersection between church and the surrounding majoritarian culture. Chapter Four outlines my original field research with Another Way, and examines the tension between minoritarian communal interpretation and the 21st century semiotic regime. Chapter Five then summarizes the conversations between theory and illustration to propose the pneumatology of minoritarian communal interpretation for Christian theology.

Influence de la Bible sur les contes et mythes ivoiriens

Etant enfant, j'ai été bercée par des contes que mes grands-parents aimaient me relater. Ces magnifiques histoires sur le comment et le pourquoi certaines créatures existaient au monde. En grandissant, je suis entrée en contact avec la Bible et certaines de ses histoires ressemblaient beaucoup aux contes de mon enfance. J'ai donc décidé de faire certaines recherches et comprendre mieux certains aspects culturels liés. Da bambina, sono stata cullata da storie che i miei nonni adoravano raccontarmi. Questi bellissimi racconti sul come e sul perché esistevano certe creature al mondo. Diventata grande, sono entrata in contatto con la Bibbia e alcune delle sue storie somigliavano molto ai racconti della mia infanzia. Ho quindi deciso di fare delle ricerche per capire meglio alcuni aspetti culturali collegati.
