each semester
German

Students will learn to read a key text of contemporary spiritual theology, based on a thorough discussion of its hermeneutical background assumptions, and develop a deeper understanding of the spiritual and theological challenges of our time. The seminar aims in particular to introduce to the paradigm shift of contemporary anglophone theology, which has provoked an unprecedented divide between German speaking and anglophone theology.

In his book 'Friendship as Sacred Knowing', Samuel Kimbriel has shown how our modern cultural and scientific self-understanding drives us into isolation. Starting from an examination of the concept of friendship in Aristotle, John the Evangelist, Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, he shows how we can find our way out of this labyrinth in our thinking and living.
