Die modernen ritual studies als Herausforderung fur die Liturgiewissenschaft. Modern Ritual Studies as a Challenge for Liturgical Studies
edited by P. Post and B. Kranemann
Die Rede von der ‘Wiederkehr’ der Rituale hat sich zu einem Topos in der jungeren theologischen und kulturwissenschaftlichen Diskussion entwickelt. Manche sehen in Westeuropa tatsachlich eine Renaissance von Ritualen. Andere sprechen nur von einer neuen Aufmerksamkeit fur Rituale und die Bedeutung, die sie fur Individuum und Gemeinschaft, auch fur Religion und Kirche besitzen. Zu welchen Forschungsergebnissen kommen Liturgiewissenschaft und ritual studies mit Blick auf die ‘rituelle Landschaft’ heute? Welche Funktionen besitzen religiose Rituale in multikulturellen westlichen Gesellschaften? Welche neuen Rituale treten zum klassischen Repertoire hinzu? Wie lassen sich nicht zuletzt Rituale theologisch interpretieren? Die Arbeitsgemeinschaft katholischer Liturgiewissenschaftlerinnen und -wissenschaftler eV (AKL) hat sich in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Liturgisch Instituut (Tilburg) auf ihrer Jahrestagung 2006 mit dem Thema ‘Die modernen ritual studies als Herausforderung fur die Liturgiewissenschaft’ beschaftigt. Liturgiewissenschaftler, Religionswissenschaftler und Ethnologen haben das weite Feld der ritual studies mit Blick auf liturgiewissenschaftliche Fragestellungen erschlossen. Im vorliegenden Band sind die Tagungsvortrage zusammengestellt, angeordnet nach unterschiedlichen Themenfeldern, Methoden und Zielsetzungen. Er will zu einer intensiven Diskussion in und zwischen den beteiligten Fachwissenschaften anregen. The discussion of the ‘return’ of ritual has developed into a topos in recent debates in theology and cultural studies. Some see a real renaissance of ritual in western Europe. Others speak only of a new awareness of ritual and the meaning which it has for individuals and society, as well as for religion and the Church. What are the results of research with a view to the ‘ritual landscape’ in the fields of liturgy and ritual studies today? What functions do religious rituals serve in multicultural western society? What new rituals are being added to the classical repertoire? And finally, how can rituals be interpreted from a theological perspective? At its biannual conference in 2006 the Incorporated Consortium of Catholic Liturgists (AKL) in cooperation with the Liturgical Institute (Tilburg) took as its topic ‘Modern ritual studies as a challenge for liturgical studies’. Liturgists, scholars of religious studies and ethnologists addressed the wide field of ritual studies with an eye to liturgical questions. The present volume brings together the lectures from the conference, ordered according to their various themes, methods and goals. This work is intended to encourage intensive discussion within and between the areas of study involved.
