V&R unipress GmbH Human Development in Sacred Landscapes: Between
Book SynopsisHoly landscape is a term frequently used to describe a multidimensional phenomenon. What this actually comprises is hard to define. Precisely this question is addressed in this volume. The holy landscape depends on peoples Weltanschauung and is influenced by their respective culture and ethos. It is not just a question of religious buildings and rituals, nor is it a mere matter of explicating terms such as pure and impure, magic and myths; it is about an expressive space in which the ceremony and mood of rites and cults take place. The contributions also deal with the emergence and continuing development of the term holy landscape and the changing expressions of religious mood.

Book SynopsisThis volume focuses on problems and implications of different translations of the Bible over time and under various societal and cultural conditions.

V&R unipress GmbH Ein traditioneller Gelehrter stellt sich der
Book SynopsisSaid Nursi gilt als traditioneller Gelehrter in der Moderne. Seine publizistische Hauptambition entwickelte sich aus einer religiösen Motivation heraus und war gepaart mit wissenschaftlichem Fortschrittsglauben, der sich gegen Unwissenheit, Armut und Uneinigkeit in der Bevölkerung stellte. Als die Unvereinbarkeit zwischen Religion und Naturwissenschaften postuliert und stellenweise ideologisch vertreten wurde, war Said Nursi bemüht, dieses Spannungsverhältnis aufzulösen. Er stellte sich den kontroversen Herausforderungen der Moderne und gab Antworten, die bis heute für die Entwicklung des Islams in der Türkei zukunftsweisend sind. Der vorliegende Band eröffnet einen Einblick in das Wirken des einflussreichen türkisch-kurdischen Gelehrten und untersucht die Kernpunkte seines Denkens. Said Nursi is considered a traditional scholar of the modern age. His main goal as a journalist was spawned of religious motivation and was paired with scientific advances of faith that stood up against lack of knowledge, poverty and disunity among the population. When the incompatibility between religion and science was postulated and, in parts, ideologically represented, Said Nursi endeavoured to resolve this tension. He confronted the controversial challenges of the modern age and provided answers that remain far-sighted for the development of Islam in Turkey today. This volume offers an insight into the work of the influential Turkish-Kurdish scholar, examining the core points of his thinking.

V&R unipress GmbH Gott, ein Gefuge: Poststrukturalistische
Book SynopsisThe debates about the global concept of religion, as they are currently being conducted in religious studies, which have been shaped by post-structuralist and post-colonial theory, have in part also led to a re-reflection of traditional concepts in theology. The aim of this volume is to bundle these debates and make them fruitful for the theology of religions. On the one hand, central categories such as truth, universality or religion are subjected to a deconstruction in order to make them visible in their historical conditionality and their interweaving with social discourses. On the other hand, new spaces of what can be said are outlined, which can serve as the basis for an alternative, non-essentialist form of religion-theological speaking. This book extends the contemporary debate on the global concept of religion, conducted in the context of religious studies, to the field of the theology of religions. In applying poststructuralist and postcolonial perspectives, it seeks to deconstruct central categories such as truth, universality, or religion, in order to contextualize them by making transparent their historical genealogy and entanglement with political, social, and scientific discourses. Further, it aims to outline new areas of thinking, which can serve as the experimental basis of an alternative, non-essentialist form of theology (of religions).

V&R unipress GmbH Loyal to the Republic, Pious to the Church: Aspects of Interconfessionality in the Life and Work of Gerasimos Vlachos (1607--1685)
Book SynopsisThis volume deals with matters of public religious expression and aspects of interconfessionality in the case of the Greek Orthdox clergyman and scholar Gerasimos Vlachos (16071685) from Candia, Crete. The book proceeds to an interpretative approach to Gerasimos Vlachos ideological, political and religious identity in all the phases of his life. As the principal factor of the work is promoted Vlachos perception of his contemporary trans- and interconfessional tendencies and cross-cultural relations firstly within the 17th-century Venetian Republic and secondly in the wider European and Ottoman sphere. Dimitris Paradoulakis aims to interpret the scholars attitude towards his contemporary theological controversies, the Venetian concept of socio-political tolerance and confessional conciliation, and Vlachos personal perception on matters of multiconfessional coexistence and freedom of worship.

V&R unipress GmbH 900 Jahre al-Gazali im Spiegel der islamischen
Book SynopsisAl-Gazali (10581111) is considered to be one of the most influential and powerful Muslim thinkers and scholars produced by the Islamic tradition of science. His research encompassed wide fields, as can also be understood from the diversity of his work with references to selected theological disciplines and the associated discourses. Many of his works are still received today and deal with philosophy, speculative theology, kalām, the fiqh and uṣūl al-fiqh, up to questions of ethics, logic and the taṣawwuf. This diversity is reflected in the scholarly discussion of al-Ġazālī, as this volume is able to show.
