DOWNLOAD EBOOKStudies in the Intercultural History of Christianity, published by Peter Lang since 1975, is nowadays the largest series in the wide field of missiology, intercultural theology, and comparative religion/theology. The present editors decided to celebrate the publication of no less than one hundred and fifty volumes by evaluating and rethinking «intercultural theology». This book is meant to encourage Christian theology to be done more thoroughly, adequately, and effectively in the contemporary global and local setting. On the one hand, the volume offers new insights into the nature of doing biblical studies, church history, and systematic and practical theology as well as comparative theology, in an intercultural way. On the other hand, it argues for accomplishing interdisciplinary studies in the fields of theology and religion.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis collection in five volumes tries to realize the desideratum of a comprehensive interdisciplinary work on the manifold faces and images of Jesus in China, which unites the Sinological, mission-historical, theological, art-historical, and other aspects. The first three volumes (vols. L/1-3) contain articles and texts which discuss the faces and images of Jesus Christ from the Tang dynasty to the present time. In a separate volume (vol. L/4) follows an annotated bibliography of the Western and Chinese writings on Jesus Christ in China and a general index with glossary. The iconography, i.e., the attempts of the Western missionaries and the Chinese to portray Jesus in an artistic way, will be presented in the fifth volume of this collection (vol. L/5).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSehr viel starker und fruher, als bislang wahrgenommen, ist die Geschichte des Christentums in Asien, Afrika und Lateinamerika seit dem 16. Jahrhundert durch polyzentrische Strukturen gekennzeichnet. Zugleich bestanden zahlreiche Querverbindungen zwischen den entstehenden UberseeKirchen, teils auch ganz unabhangig von missionarischen Netzwerken. Die Beitrage der Zweiten Internationalen Munchen-Freisinger Konferenz behandeln unterschiedliche Formen transkontinentaler Verbindungen und fruhe Beispiele direkter SudSudBeziehungen. Dabei werden drei Paradigmen diskutiert: 1. Ethnische Diasporen als Netzwerke, die fur eine uberregionale Selbstausbreitung des Christentums relevant sind; 2. Transkontinentale Rezeptionsprozesse; 3. Parallelentwicklungen in Asien, Afrika und Lateinamerika. (Texte in deutscher und englischer Sprache). Since the 16th century the history of Christianity in Asia, Africa and Latin America has been much more polycentric in patterns of interaction than has been traditionally recognized. At the same time there have existed many links between the emergent overseas churches, often quite independent of missionary connections. The papers from the Second International MunichFreising Conference deal with various forms of transcontinental links and early instances of SouthtoSouth interactions. (Texts in German and English)
