Religion, Interreligious Learning and Education
The focus of this book is on multifaith or interreligious learning, i.e. learning beyond the boundaries of one religion. Questions are raised about the proper understanding of religion, of perspectivity, of dealing with experiences of transcendence and of how to identify and distinguish the aims and goals of religious education.

Educating Religious Education Teachers
International knowledge transfer in religious education (RE) is still a fairly new topic. Many scholars in the field consider this discussion of prime importance for the future of both the academic discipline of religious education and the related school subject RE. This book continues this discussion and specifies it in the direction of teacher education. Its focus is on the challenges that teacher students and their trainers are facing in the light of RE in a pluralized and detraditionalized society. The impact of these challenges on RE research is obvious. However, international exchange of research results for purposes of comparison and mutual enrichment is still rare. This book provides insights that can encourage and facilitate this exchange.
A Vision of the Days: Studies in Early Jewish History and Historiography
This collection of essays treats many aspects of ancient Jewish history and modern historiography in this area, with an emphasis on the history and literature of the Second Temple period and especially on the writings of Josephus. It is dedicated to Daniel R. Schwarz, and reflects his central academic interests. Additional essays deal with historical and ideological aspects of classical rabbinic literature, with archeological finds and with perceptions of the Jews and Judaism on the part of non-Jews in the Second Temple period and later.
Performative Religionsdidaktik
Die Performative Religionsdidaktik wird derzeit in Theorie und Praxis breit rezipiert. In der religionspadagogischen Literatur findet eine intensive Auseinandersetzung statt, und im Religionsunterricht kommen immer mehr performative Elemente zum Einsatz. "Performativ" steht fur eine breite Palette moglicher Unterrichtsinszenierungen: die Darstellung von Sprechakten, die Gestaltung theatraler oder ritueller Handlungen sowie die Verkorperung von Botschaften bei der Lekture oder bei der Textproduktion. Dieser Band fuhrt umfassend in das Konzept der Performativen Religionsdidaktik ein: Neben theoretischen Beitragen zu Performanz und Bildung werden verschiedene Lernorte und Erschliessungsperspektiven diskutiert. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf den vorgestellten Unterrichtsentwurfen, die zur eigenen Umsetzung anregen.
Social inequality and interreligious learning
Interreligious learning is viewed as a key educational task today. Increasing religious plurality in our societies and associated risks of societal tensions and conflicts necessitate that students deal at school with other religions, their belief systems, and the social reality of those who believe in them. Although several international studies have shown that some categories of students are at risk to be disadvantaged at school because of social inequality, this problem is currently not considered in theories of interreligious learning. Therefore, the present study investigates whether or not categories of students are disadvantaged in interreligious learning. In addition to theological and pedagogical insights about the problem of social inequality, this book presents an empirically validated action-theoretical model which helps to understand why some students have better or worse opportunities in interreligious learning. The action-theoretical model further proposes strategies to address unequal learning conditions in interreligious learning.
Mercy
Mercy is an important concept in the Christian moral tradition. It is one of the most prominent divine attributes, and is embodied in Jesus Christ. This volume investigates the concept of mercy from a Protestant point of view with respect to its consequences for an increasingly non-Christian society. Starting from its biblical origins, a group of international authors explicates the intrinsically messianic logic of divine mercy for its potential in current theological ethics, practical ecclesiology, systematic and public theology.
The Routledge Handbook of Buddhist-Christian Studies
Buddhist-Christian dialogue has a long and complex history that stretches back to the first centuries of the common era. Comprising 42 international and disciplinarily diverse chapters, this volume begins by setting up a framework for examining the nature of Buddhist-Christian interreligious dialogue, discussing how research in this area has been conducted in the past and considering future theoretical directions. Subsequent chapters delve into: important episodes in the history of Buddhist-Christian dialogue; contemporary conversations such as monastic interreligious dialogue, multiple religious identity, and dual religious practice; and Buddhist-Christian cooperation in social justice, soc...
Wenn der Tod im Klassenzimmer ankommt
Der Tod kommt in vielfacher Gestalt im Klassenzimmer an und kann die am Schulleben beteiligten AkteurInnen existentiell betreffen und herausfordern. LehrerInnen sind wichtige Bezugspersonen für SchülerInnen, besonders hinsichtlich der Begleitung in Grenzsituationen. Der vorliegende Sammelband möchte LehrerInnen aller Fächer für einen offenen, vertrauensvollen und reflektierten Umgang mit den Themen Sterben, Tod und Trauer sensibilisieren und aufzeigen, wie die Beteiligten den verschiedenen Situationen kompetent begegnen können. Aus (religions-)pädagogischer Perspektive wird die Thematik in einer facettenreichen Komposition aus (theologisch-)wissenschaftlichen und praxisorientierten Beiträgen entfaltet.
