(Not) at Home in the World? – Implicit Modelling of Home(s) in the Protestant Theological Discourse of the 20th and 21st centuries (A06)

• Subject Area: Protestant Theology
• Term: since 2024
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 517096657

In a first step, we will develop methodological and heuristic preliminary work on implicit understandings of home in theology, official church statements and hymns, and identify relevant texts. In a second step, we will use hermeneutic and digital humanities methods to analyze the relevant texts with regard to vectors and figurations of homing. In a final step, the results of the investigation will be published in three monographs and one essay.
