Programme

The conference focuses on the phenomena which brought profound impulses and challenges for religion, theology, doctrine, society, as well as for the thinking and attitudes of individuals. These impulses can derive from within systems of religious belief and practice, but can also stem from outside these systems. Therefore, the main topic of the conference is the interaction between religion, society and the individual with respect to change and reform during the long period from late antiquity to modern history.

Conference languages: English, German, French
