Abstract

De Arabische bijdrage aan de totstandkoming van de Europese cultuur is een "vergeten erfenis". Lendering vertelt hoe de westerse cultuur in de elfde eeuw ontstond toen Europa in de leer ging in de wereld van de islam. De invloed van de experimentele wetenschap van geleerden als al-Haytham, van de geneeskundige inzichten van de Iraanse arts Ibn Sina en van de discussievrijheid van de islamitische rechtscolleges komen aan de orde, net als de sporen van het islamitische gelijkheidsdenken in het westerse recht en de wortels van de scheiding van kerk en staat.

Abstract

In deze bundel essays wordt de opvatting dat de moderne Westerse wereld gedragen wordt door rationalisme en secularisatie in vraag gesteld. Ook in het Westen spelen irrationele, religieuze factoren een belangrijke rol (bv. de relatie religie-nationalisme, het verband tussen de beschavingsmissie van de moderne wereld en de christelijke zendingsdrang). Verder komen een aantal problemen aan bod waarmee een moderne natie-staat worstelt: multiculturalisme, synbcretisme en hybriditeit.

Abstract

Today, most intellectuals agree that (a) Christianity has profoundly influenced western culture; (b) members from different cultures experience many aspects of the world differently; (c) the empirical and theoretical study of both culture and religion emerged within the West. The present study argues that these truisms have implications for the conceptualization of religion and culture. More specifically, the thesis is that non-western cultures and religions differ from the descriptions prevalent in the West, and it is also explained why this has been the case. The author proposes novel analyses of religion, the Roman 'religio', the construction of 'religions' in India, and the nature of cultural differences. Religion is important to the West because the constitution and the identity of western culture is tied to the dynamic of Christianity as a religion.
