"Is cinema evil, or sacramental? Can films make theological contributions? Can film-viewing be a religious practice? How do films, values and power interact? The study of film and religion engages a range of diverse questions through different approaches and methods. In this contribution, I distinguish three complementary approaches. In the first part, I discuss those that focus on the film as text, the representation of religion in film, and how theology happens in film. The next section will broaden this perspective by taking into consideration how films affect audiences, and how the relationship between film and audience might have religious dimensions or serve religious functions. In the third part, attention to the text and the audience are combined with the consideration of both film and religion as agents in cultural processes in order to think about how film and religion are shaped by and shape value systems and ideologies. In the last section I will begin to tackle the difficult question of theory and method. I consciously postpone this part until the end because, in many cases, methodologies and theoretical frameworks are implied in and emerge from concrete case studies rather than being consciously reflected upon. This final section has two goals: it will make explicit some of these underlying assumptions to serve as a starting point for a more sustained reflection on the theories and methodologies of the field, and it will highlight some of the pitfalls we encounter if we are not methodologically and theoretically precise in our work".

Was ist dieses Projekt, das man Europa nennt? Wie werden Ideen von Europa dargestellt? Woran denkt man, wenn man von Religion in Repräsentation von Europa spricht? Und wie formt Religion diese Imaginationen? Was bewirken sie? Auf diese Fragen gibt es keine einfache Antwort, weil es zu viele unterschiedliche Ideen davon gibt, was Europa und was Religion in Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und Zukunft sind, sein sollten oder sein müssten. Dieses Buch arbeitet mit Fallstudien, in denen sich Ideen und Konzepte von Europa verdichten: ein Text, ein Kunstwerk, ein Gebäude, eine Ausstellung, eine Karte, ein Filmfestival, ein Lied oder eine Mahlzeit. Mit Beiträgen von Dolores Zoé Bertschinger, Carla Danani, Verena Marie Eberhardt, Natalie Fritz, Anna-Katharina Höpflinger, Ann Jeffers, Stefanie Knauss, Marie-Therese Mäder, Daria Pezzoli-Olgiati, Natasha O'Hear, Alexander Darius Ornella, Sean Michael Ryan, Alberto Saviello, Baldassare Scolari und Paola Wyss-Giacosa.
