Focusing on Zoroastrian eschatology, this project asks, to what extent the construction of reli-gious meaning relies on the transformation of existing metaphors rather than the production of entirely new ones. By doing so, it will make a fundamental contribution to the ongoing debate on the development of eschatological ideas in Zoroastrianism and the history of other Eurasian reli-gions, particularly, to the discussion on the absorption of Zoroastrian eschatological ideas in Jewish, Christian, or Islamic traditions. To that end, the project will investigate five historical lay-ers of Zoroastrian literature from 12th cent. BCE to 17th cent. AD.

该项目以琐罗亚斯德教末世论为重点，提出宗教意义的建构在多大程度上依赖于现有隐喻的转变，而不是全新隐喻的产生。通过这样做，它将为正在进行的关于琐罗亚斯德教末世论思想发展和其他欧亚宗教历史的争论，特别是关于犹太教、基督教或伊斯兰教传统中吸收琐罗亚斯德教末世论思想的讨论做出根本性的贡献。为此，该项目将调查 12 世纪以来琐罗亚斯德教文学的五个历史层面。公元前至十七世纪。广告。
