Charisma und Sukzession: Formen und Wandel religiöser Autorität von der Antike bis in die Gegenwart
Reibungsgewinne – Reibungsverluste , Seite 103 - 134
Zur Einführung: Religion, Geschlecht und Sexualität
Populäre Erleuchtung oder: Im Wirkungsfeld von Aufklärung und buddhistischem Modernismus
„Erleuchtung“ ist einer der prominentesten Begriffe, mit dem in der europäischen Kultur- und Religionsgeschichte Ideen der Vervollkommnung des Menschen zum Ausdruck gebracht worden sind. Anhand ausgewählter Beispiele umreißt das vorliegende Papier seine Entwicklung von einer Metapher in der griechischen Philosophie hin zu einem transkonfessionellen Sammelbegriff, der im Zuge der Pluralisierung von Religionen seit den 1960er Jahren eine Konjunktur…
Receptions of Greek and Roman Antiquity in East Asia
Receptions of Greek and Roman Antiquity in East Asia is an interdisciplinary, collaborative, and global effort to examine the receptions of the Western Classical tradition in a cross-cultural context. The inclusion of modern East Asia in Classical reception studies not only allows scholars in the field to expand the scope of their scholarly inquiries but will also become a vital step toward transcending the meaning of Greco-Roman tradition into a…
Pythagorean knowledge from the ancient to the modern world: Askesis, Religion, Science
In both ancient tradition and modern research Pythagoreanism has been understood as a religious sect or as a philosophical and scientific community. Numerous attempts have been made to reconcile these pictures as well as to analyze them separately. The most recent scholarship compartmentalizes different facets of Pythagorean knowledge, but this offers no context for exploring their origins, development, and interdependence. This collection aims t…

Tracing the Line of Europa: Migration, Genealogy, and the Power of Holy Origins in Ancient Greek Narrative Knowledge and Cultural Memory
This essay explores the place of the mythical heroine Europa in the narrative knowledge and cultural memory of ancient Greece and modern Europe. Early Greek sources make reference to several women named Europa, only one of whom is Agenor's (or Phoenix's) daughter abducted by Zeus who made her the member of a divine lineage. However, during the fifth-century BCE, the diverse "Europa" figures came to be identified with the Phoenician princess; and …
Buddhism and Film—Inter-Relation and Interpenetration: Reflections on an Emerging Research Field
This article provides an introduction to the special issue of Contemporary Buddhism entitled 'Buddhism and Film'. Since the silent movie The Light of Asia, a German-Indian co-production released in the USA in 1928, increasing numbers of films have been produced across the globe that are related in some way to Buddhism. In the specific conditions of the modern period and an increasingly globalised world a new field of research gradually formed, wh…
Ancient Worlds in Film and Television: Gender and Politics
It's an antiwar film only in that if you want to go to war after seeing this picture, then it's not an antiwar film.

No Magic against Love,” or Dark Seduction Redirected: Perspectives on the Fantasy Film Krabat
By drawing on material from popular legend and children’s literature, Marco Kreuzpaintner’s film Krabat presents a series of conventional leitmotifs—seduction by dark powers, a pact with the devil and ultimate redemption through love—to explore the tensions implicit in master-disciple relationships common to religious formulations. In depicting how a young boy was compelled to enter under a demonic master’s protection, Krabat exploits the complex…

The Emergence of the Master around 1900: Religious Borrowings and Social Theory
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, within a variety of spheres, individual personalities referred to as ‘masters’ were venerated in quasi-religious terms. As a result, treatises relevant to the theme of the ‘master’ were written which had a major impact on subsequent scholarship, particularly in the sociology of knowledge and religion. Inspired by the poet Stefan George and taking his circle as a model, Max Weber, Max Scheler, …
Der Asketen- als Wissenskörper: Zum verkörperlichten Wissen des Simeon Stylites in ausgewählten texten der Spätantike
The strict distinction and separation of mind and body is a particularly modern Western point of view that is routinely also applied to other cultures. Arguing against this dichotomy, the following contribution builds upon research on "implicit knowledge" (Michael Polanyi) and "knowing how" that allow us to view body and mind in their interaction. The focus is on Simeon Stylites the Elder, the most prominent representative of the Syrian ascetic m…
Zwischen Märchen und Mythos
Märchen oder Mythos? Worin liegt der Unterschied? Die Autorin untersucht Texte von der Antike bis ins 20. Jahrhundert, z. B. Kafka und Benjamin, und grenzt Märchen und Mythos als zwei verschiedene Erzählmöglichkeiten voneinander ab. Eine wichtige Studie für Komparatistik, Literaturgeschichte und Altphilologie
