  • Publisher: BRILL

This book includes a collection of articles by leading researchers on the topic of religious contact in the study of religion. Resulting from the final conference of the Käte Hamburger Kolleg "Dynamics in the History of Religions"–one of the largest research initiatives in the interdisciplinary study of religion worldwide in recent years (2008-2020)—this book encapsulates the twofold aim of this conference: first, to "step back" and reflect upon the merits and challenges of studying religious dynamics as a result of intra-, inter-, and extra-religious contact, and second "to look beyond" and pave ways for future approaches to study religion as a social phenomenon.

Eugenio Coseriu

The volume is published on the occasion of the birth centennial of Eugenio Coseriu (1921–2002).

The volume aims to raise the general awareness of Coseriu’s work among linguists around the world, in accordance wi...
