Descripción
Sumario:This first volume of the series ¿́¿Dynamics in the History of Religions¿́¿ reviews the opening conference of the \'Ka¿te Hamburger Kolleg¿́¿ at the Ruhr-University Bochum. The first section concentrates on the formation of what later come to be termed \'world religions\' through inter-religious contact, the second part focuses on the significance of interreligious contacts also during their expansive phase. Methodological problems of multi-perspective research and especially the lack of a general religious terminology are discussed in the third chapter, while the final papers outline various aspects of secularization and (re-)sacralisation in the age of globalisation as an effect of multicultural contacts in a world wide web of religious interferences.
