In the last decades, the worldview(s) of so-called Indigenous religions have regained academic interest. Scholars of religion, anthropologists, and Indigenous writers engage in a new research field called new animism characterized by a diversity of insider and outsider positions. The field contains immense potential for inspiring general debates in the study of religion because it touches on fundamental questions about hermeneutics, epistemology, epistemic goals, disciplinary identities, and the influence of Western ontology on scientific and academic research.This article aims to draw the attention of scholars of religion to the new animism by contextualizing the field within disciplinary and cultural history, presenting its core theories, analyzing its methodological and epistemological positions, and identifying the central players ands its politically highly charged social contexts with asymmetrical power relations. Finally, it discusses how the new animism challenges general debates within the study of religion and may provocatively stimulate them.
在过去的几十年里,所谓土著宗教的世界观重新引起了学术界的兴趣。宗教学者、人类学家和土著作家从事一个新的研究领域,称为新万物有灵论,其特点是内部和外部立场的多样性。该领域具有激发宗教研究一般性辩论的巨大潜力,因为它涉及解释学、认识论、认识目标、学科身份以及西方本体论对科学和学术研究的影响等基本问题。本文旨在通过将这一领域置于学科和文化史的语境中,介绍其核心理论,分析其方法论和认识论立场,并确定具有不对称权力关系的核心参与者及其政治高度活跃的社会背景,来引起宗教学者对新万物有灵论的关注。最后,它讨论了新的万物有灵论如何挑战宗教研究中的一般性辩论,并可能激发它们。

Evolutionary, Cognitive, and Contextual Approaches to the Study of Religious Systems 宗教系统研究的进化、认知和语境方法

The explanatory gap between the life sciences and the humanities that is present in the study of human phenomena impedes productive interdisciplinary examination that such a complex subject requires. Manifested as epistemological tensions over reductionism vs. holism, nature vs. nurture, and the study of micro vs. macro context, the divergent research approaches in the humanities and the sciences produce separate bodies of knowledge that are difficult to reconcile. To remedy this incommensurability, the article proposes to employ the complex adaptive systems approach, which allows to study specific cultural systems in their ecologies and to account for the myriads of factors that constitute such systems, including nonlinear interactions between these factors and their evolution. On a specific example of religious systems, we show that by studying cultural systems in their contextual variability, mechanistic composition, and evolutionary history, the humanities and the sciences should be able to fruitfully collaborate while avoiding previous pitfalls of excessive reductionism, genetic determinism, and sweeping overgeneralizations, on the one hand, and pitfalls of excessive holism, cultural determinism, and aversion to any generalizations, on the other hand.
人类现象研究中存在的生命科学和人文科学之间的解释性差距阻碍了如此复杂的学科所需的富有成效的跨学科考试。表现为还原论与整体主义、自然与后天培养以及微观与宏观背景研究的认识论紧张关系,人文学科和科学领域的不同研究方法产生了难以调和的独立知识体系。为了弥补这种不可通约性,文章建议采用复杂的适应系统方法,该方法允许研究特定文化系统的生态,并解释构成这些系统的无数因素,包括这些因素及其进化之间的非线性相互作用。在宗教系统的一个具体例子中,我们表明,通过研究文化系统的上下文可变性、机械组成和进化史,人文学科和科学应该能够卓有成效地合作,同时避免以前的过度还原论、基因决定论和全面的过度概括,另一方面,过度整体主义、文化决定论和厌恶任何概括的陷阱。

Inter-religious Relations as a New Foundation for Comparative Religion 宗教间关系:比较宗教学的新基础

This article argues that the problems that comparative religion encountered in the 1980s and onward did not arise from the comparative project as such, but rather from the fact that comparative religion was founded on an analytical strategy that relied on defining religion. In order to overcome these problems and critique of Jonathan Z. Smith, Talal Asad and others, it is proposed that the comparative study of religion could be re-established on the basis of a different analytical strategy and more specifically on the basis of a relational perspective, in which the crucial point of departure is the finding that religions in many periods and cultural settings seem to constitute themselves in relation to at least one significant other religion. In periods and cultural settings, where religions relate to each other, we do in fact have a commonality between all religions, namely the inter-religious relation. This relation can ensure that we are not comparing things that have nothing in common. If the inter-religious relation is the point of departure, the comparative study of religion can be transformed in such a way that it is not overturned by the social constructionism or post-modernism of J. Z. Smith, Talal Asad and others.
本文认为,比较宗教学在20世纪80年代及以后遇到的问题并不是由比较项目本身引起的,而是因为比较宗教学是建立在一种依赖于定义宗教的分析策略之上的。为了克服这些问题和对乔纳森·史密斯(Jonathan Z. Smith)、塔拉勒·阿萨德(Talal Asad)等人的批评,有人建议,宗教的比较研究可以在一种不同的分析策略的基础上重新建立起来,更具体地说,是在关系视角的基础上,其中关键的出发点是发现许多时期和文化背景下的宗教似乎至少与一种重要的其他宗教有关。在宗教相互关联的时期和文化背景中,我们实际上在所有宗教之间都有一个共同点,即宗教间关系。这种关系可以确保我们不是在比较毫无共同之处的事物。如果宗教间关系是出发点,那么宗教比较研究就可以以一种不被J. Z. Smith、Talal Asad等人的社会建构主义或后现代主义所颠覆的方式进行转型。

A Gnostic History of Religions 诺斯替宗教史
IF 0.6 2区 哲学 0 RELIGION Pub Date : 2020-01-24 DOI: 10.1163/15700682-12341464
D. G. Robertson
April DeConick’s The Gnostic New Age demonstrates that scholarship of Gnosticism is still entrenched in an Eliadian phenomenological paradigm which essentializes an ahistorical sui generis “Gnosis”. This approach is traceable to the Eranos Circle, particularly Carl G. Jung and Gilles Quispel, and builds certain philosophical and psychoanalytical affinities into an ahistorical religious current. DeConick’ comparison with New Age is tenuous, and misses the important fact that Gnosticism and New Age share specific genealogical antecedents. Interdisciplinary work needs to pay more attention to the theological and colonial implications of categories, or such problematic categories will continue to take root in the gaps between academic specialisms.
April DeConick的《诺斯替主义新时代》表明,诺斯替主义的学术仍然植根于埃利亚现象学范式,该范式将一种非历史的独特“诺斯替主义”本质化。这种方法可以追溯到Eranos Circle,特别是Carl G.Jung和Gilles Quispel,并将某些哲学和精神分析的亲缘关系构建成一股非历史的宗教潮流。DeConick与新时代的比较是脆弱的,并忽略了诺斯替主义和新时代有着特定的谱系前因这一重要事实。跨学科工作需要更多地关注类别的神学和殖民意义,否则这些有问题的类别将继续扎根于学术专业之间的差距。

This article highlights the discourse-driven nature of contemporary processes of religious change. Drawing on the textually-oriented discourse theory and discourse analysis of Fairclough supplemented by additional perspectives from organizational discourse studies, the article outlines a discourse-centered analytic framework for the empirical study of the changing discursive practices and modus operandi of contemporary religious organizations. The framework consists of four analytic factors, each of which highlight the role that discourse plays at various levels of processes of religious organizational change. The article demonstrates the application of the framework in actual practice in relation to empirical examples from five traditional Christian churches in three different national contexts, thus bringing the tangible effects of changing discursive practices on the operations and practices of religious organizations into clear focus.
这篇文章强调了当代宗教变革进程的话语驱动性质。本文以费尔克劳的语篇导向话语理论和话语分析为基础,辅以组织话语研究的其他视角,勾勒出一个以话语为中心的分析框架,用于实证研究当代宗教组织话语实践和运作方式的变化。该框架由四个分析因素组成,每个分析因素都强调了话语在宗教组织变革过程的各个层面上所起的作用。本文以三个不同国家背景下的五个传统基督教会为例,展示了这一框架在实际实践中的应用,从而使话语实践的变化对宗教组织的运作和实践产生了切实的影响。

The cognitive science of religion (CSR) is distinctive in its systematic methodology and its interdisciplinary nature. In the field of the study of religion, however, scholars are hardly receptive to CSR because of its “scientific” nature. The reason for this is that CSR is understood as distinct from other studies, nevertheless it has humanistic backgrounds. In order to investigate the intellectual backgrounds of CSR, the paper will describe the initial development of CSR by introducing researches and academic cooperation in the period from the 1990s to the early 2000s. Moreover, by examining academic contexts, what the emergence of CSR brought about to the study of religion will be clarified. CSR emerged as a result of the debate between modernist and postmodernist, connecting various views and resulting in a great shift in the intellectual landscape. This interdisciplinary role can be seen as the most important achievement of CSR.
宗教认知科学具有系统方法论和跨学科性质。然而,在宗教研究领域,由于企业社会责任的“科学性”,学者们很难接受它。究其原因,企业社会责任被理解为不同于其他研究,尽管它具有人文背景。为了探究企业社会责任的知识背景,本文将通过介绍20世纪90年代至21世纪初的研究和学术合作来描述企业社会责任最初的发展。此外,通过考察学术语境,我们将阐明企业社会责任的出现给宗教研究带来了什么。企业社会责任是现代主义和后现代主义争论的结果,它连接了各种观点,导致了知识格局的巨大转变。这种跨学科的作用可以被视为企业社会责任最重要的成就。

For at least a century, scholars have argued about whether or not Buddha is considered a god. We treat this question empirically by conducting two ethnographic studies among residents of the Tyva Republic, one of the Buddhist republics in the Russian Federation. Using a mixed methods approach to interrogate the question, this report concludes that Buddha is, in fact, popularly represented as a punitive and moralistic supernatural agent in the republic and demographic factors co-vary with such beliefs. The paper addresses longstanding concerns and situates the results in contemporary social scientific inquiry that addresses questions of when, where, to what degree, and why he is represented as a deity.
至少一个世纪以来,学者们一直在争论佛陀是否被认为是神。我们通过对俄罗斯联邦佛教共和国之一的蒂瓦共和国的居民进行两项民族志研究来实证地处理这个问题。使用混合方法来询问这个问题,本报告得出的结论是,事实上,在共和国,佛陀被普遍地描述为一种惩罚和道德的超自然力量,人口因素与这种信仰共同变化。本文解决了长期存在的问题,并将结果置于当代社会科学探究中,解决了何时、何地、在何种程度上以及为什么他被代表为神的问题。

Ideological Blindspot in the Academic Study of Religion and Film 宗教与电影学术研究中的意识形态盲点

This essay offers a critique of how “religion” is defined and studied in the academic field of religion and film, and calls for a more nuanced application of ideological analysis to the subject. Surveying the dominant scholarship in the field, it exposes a tendency to provide either theological or mythological definitions of religion and to privilege the category as something sui generis—a unique, special, or “spiritual” domain of things in the world. Moreover, it shows how this scholarship disparages ideological analysis as reductive, abstract, and elite, and fails to consider how religion itself functions ideologically in film and film criticism. Drawing upon the work of critical scholars of religion to support this latter claim, as well as contemporary film studies theory, the article closes with a call for a more nuanced understanding of how ideology is constructed at both an individual and cinematic level.
本文对宗教和电影学术领域如何定义和研究“宗教”进行了批判,并呼吁将意识形态分析更细致地应用于这一主题。调查该领域的主流学术,它揭示了一种趋势,即提供宗教的神学或神话定义,并将该类别视为独特的东西——世界上事物的独特、特殊或“精神”领域。此外,它还表明了这种学术如何贬低意识形态分析是还原的、抽象的和精英的,而没有考虑宗教本身在电影和电影批评中的意识形态作用。文章引用了宗教批判学者的工作来支持后一种说法,以及当代电影研究理论,最后呼吁对意识形态是如何在个人和电影层面构建的进行更细致的理解。
