How does the powerful effect that religion has on public and personal life relate to the various spheres of our culture? Is the relationship between power and religion always negative or can religion also affect individuals and societies positively? This volume of the EuARe Lectures, edited by Herman Selderhuis, collects the texts of the lectures delivered at the Third Annual Conference of the European Academy of Religion (2020) on the topic "The Power of Religion / Religion and Power". Scott Appleby explores the connection, in the religious imagination, among glorifying the divine, sanctifying the mundane and exercising political and cultural power. Cyril Hovorun addresses the issue of the politicization of religion, focusing in particular on Eastern Christian cases. Susanne Schröter offers an insight into the current debate on Islam in Germany. Finally, Kristina Stoeckl analyses the complex relationship among Europe's new religious conflicts, Russian orthodoxy, American Christian conservatives and the emergence of a European populist right-wing.

Religion from the inside looks different in different religious traditions. Within some, the inside view is engaged mainly with questions of theology: the contemplation of the divine and all things in relation thereto. Within others, it is preoccupied with the conforming of human action to a more-than-human law. In yet other, an emic perspective focuses on the practice and experience of ritual. Reflection on sacred texts is common to many traditions, and often differs from external consideration of the same documents.

Die von Irene Dingel und Herman Selderhuis versammelten Beiträge widmen sich der europäischen Ausstrahlung des Genfer Reformators Johannes Calvin und den weitgreifenden Wirkungen des Calvinismus. Dabei kommt der Calvinismus als ein länderübergreifendes konfessionelles System in den Blick, dessen Gestaltungskräfte sich sowohl in theologischer als auch in gesellschaftlicher, politischer und kultureller Hinsicht äußerten, mit bestehenden Systemen in Interaktion traten und so wesentlich zur Ausprägung des modernen Europa beitrugen. In drei thematischen Schwerpunkten kommen zunächst die Person Calvins und ihre Einflüsse in West- und Osteuropa zur Sprache, sodann die durch Vertreibung, Exil und Neuaufbau geprägte Wirklichkeit des frühneuzeitlichen Calvinismus und schließlich die in einer spezifischen Spiritualität und deren »Medien« Gestalt gewinnende geistige Kraft des Calvinismus. Der Band greift die verschiedenen aktuellen Forschungsdiskurse auf, führt sie unter der Perspektive der europäischen Wirkmächtigkeit des Calvinismus zusammen und eröffnet durch seine Interdisziplinarität und Internationalität zugleich neue Blickwinkel, um auf diese Weise impulsgebend auf die Forschung zu wirken.
