“…Também Pummer (1972), pesquisador do Department of Classics and Religious Studies da University of Ottawa, Canada, adverte àqueles que pretendem utilizar o termo religiologia como um campo de estudos simultaneamente histórico e teológico, teórico e aplicado, devendo, nesse caso ser estabelecida uma clara fronteira entre Religiologia e a Religionswissenschaft. Nesse caso, concordando com as advertências do autor, tratam-se, obviamente de estudos distintos.…”

O teólogo e o cientista da religião. Religiografia acerca das interfaces entre Ciências da Religião ou Religiologia e Teologia no BrasilThe theologian and the scientist of religion. Religiography regarding the interfaces between Science of Religion or Religiology and Theology in BrazilFlávio Senra* Teologia e ciência da religião têm mantido relações nem sempre harmônicas desde que a última se impôs na academia. Após perder sua antiga ancilla (filosofia), a teologia vê-se agora desafiada a disputar espaço no espectro multidisciplinar da ciência da religião. Teixeira (2001). Tal redação expressa o conjunto das perspectivas em curso e também os vários programas ou cursos no país, com suas respectivas opções epistemológicas. Exceções se constituem quando a expressão faz menção ao pretendido nome oficial para a área ou atual subcomissão, definida em assembleia da Associação Nacional de Pós-graduação e Pesquisa em Teologia e Ciências da Religião -ANPTECRE, em 2012 como Ciências da Religião e Teologia (SENRA, 2015a). Além disso, variações podem ser observadas quando se acompanha a citação direta e indireta de autores que não seguem essas mesmas orientações. Cumpre ainda destacar que ao nos referirmos ao campo de estudos, e não particularmente à área, utilizamos a expressão Estudos da Religião. Considering the postgraduate production profile of teachers in the Science(s) of Religion(s) programs, besides the epistemological debate that should preside over that reflection, the current Graduate programs in Science of Religion and Theology area suggests that the Brazilian profile tends to recognize the interface between these two subareas in the field of Religious Studies in Brazil.

“…For the past few decades, international English-language publications, learned associations and the electronic media have provided forums where scholars from North America and English-speaking Europe increasingly share information about the local experiences of Religious Studies programs and discuss the issues pertaining specifically to the academic study of religion (Warne 2004: 14). Over the years, Canadian scholars have taken an active part in all the major theoretical and methodological debates concerning the study of religion, whether those debates centred on disciplinarity (Bourgault 1970;King 1984: 132 and passim; McCutcheon 1998;Pummer 1972), the definition of religion (Arnal 2000: 23-24; Berger 1971: 96 and passim; Chagnon 1986; Despland 1999: 505;M6nard 1994;Rousseau 1980: 89) or the institutional and economic status of Religious Studies academic units (Badertscher et al 1993;Despland 1988;Juschka 1999;McCutcheon 1998;Nefsky 1995;Remus et al 1992; Rousseau and Remus 1999). A quick look at international publications focussed on these issues may leave one with the idea that the problems encountered in practicing the academic study of religion are largely shared, at least throughout Canada, the United States and English-speaking Europe.…”

Religion as the academic's enemy: A case study of an ineffective discursive strategy

This article is about one of the most popular discursive strategies in meta-theoretical discourses on the academic study of religion : the continual reference to the distinction between theology and the academic study of religion. This strategy rests on the association of theology with religiousness, phenomenology and hermeneutics, which are then taken as a whole and put in a relation of opposition to science and scientific activity. I intend to show that this strategy produces discursive effects that contradict its explicit content. Some alternative examples of meta-theoretical discourses in which religion is not considered as the enemy of science will be brought in. All these elements are considered in the specific context of the academic study of religion in Canada.Résumé : Cet article aborde l'utilisation, au cours des dernières décennies, d'une des stratégies discursives les plus répandues au niveau métathéorique en sciences des religions: la référence & a g r a v e ; la distinction entre la théologie et les sciences de la religion. Cette stratégie repose, d'une part, sur des liens hâtifs entre la théologie, la religiosité, la phénomé-nologie et l'herméneutique et, d'autre part, sur l'opposition entre « la science » (et ses dérivés) et « la religion ». Nous entendons montrer qu'une telle stratégie produit des effets discursifs qui contredisent son contenu explicite. Nous explorons également quelques sources alternatives de discours méta-théorique, où la religion n'est pas considérée comme l'ennemie de la science. Ces éléments sont analysés dans le contexte spécifique de l'étude de la religion au Canada.For the past few decades, international English-language publications, learned associations and the electronic media have provided forums where scholars from North America and English-speaking Europe increasingly at UNIV OF WESTERN ONTARIO on June 7, 2015 sir.sagepub.com Downloaded from
