The panel aims in an interdisciplinary perspective to ask question around new forms of religion in modernity. Religious studies and Theology have different angles to tackle questions of religion and its forms in modernity. Identity seems to be a key question. Martin Rötting looks from a religious studies perspective into the often-addressed category: The spiritual pilgrim - a form of religion in modernity? Daniela Fella looks into “Identity crises in modernity. The impact of religion on female identity constructions in contemporary auteur cinema” and Rainer Gottschlag asks a theological question: “Assembled by grace in freedom?” following up ideas and divisions that started in Vatican II.
