Conceptualization of Phenomenology in Modern Theology: Features and Tendencies

Student: Oznobikhina Irina

Educational Programme: Philosophical Anthropology (Master)

Year of Graduation: 2018

Current graduation work is devoted to the conceptualization of a new trend in modern theology, expressed in the justification of God through feelings on the example of the New Phenomenology of G. Schmitz. There is a point of view according to which theology is understood as none-cognition: it is interpreted as a multidimensional discipline with rationally formed value activity under the guise of knowledge. This work shows grounds of such understanding of theology and demonstrates dissimilarity of this discipline with the predominance of the value theory by the phenomenologically specified features of the feeling. The reference to the ideas of the new phenomenology of Schmitz and their subsequent presentation reveals the features of faith as a feeling, which includes the effect of the presence of the divine as a special atmosphere.
