Warum sind interreligiöse Begegnungen und Beziehungen sowohl beunruhigender als auch vielversprechender, als normalerweise angenommen wird? Indem er den zeitgenössischen theologischen Diskurs der "Theopoetik" einbezieht, bietet Marius van Hoogstraten eine andere Art der Annäherung an die Theologie an, als die Leser vielleicht gewohnt sind, aber eine, die besonders gut zu unserer Zeit passt.
In this study, Marius van Hoogstraten seeks to come to an understanding of the interreligious that embraces the ambiguity, historicity, and dynamic relationality of religious difference - in a word, its unruliness. While many approaches in theology implicitly recognize this unruliness, they typically try to bring it under control, to pacify it, or keep it at a distance. Instead, the author proposes turning to the "theopoetics" - approaches to theology marked by both uncertainty and creativity - of the contemporary philosophers and theologians Richard Kearney, John D. Caputo and Catherine Keller to envision the interreligious as the non-site of an aporetic relatedness neither secondary to religious identity nor indicative of an underlying unity, making it possible for an inter-religious solidarity to emerge from the depths of difference.
