Metaphors of the self: On the connection between self-constitution and religion in the Hebrew Bible (B03)

这个项目的重点是希伯来圣经中与身体有关的隐喻，特别是诗篇，约伯记，耶利米书和耶利米哀歌。使用这些隐喻，这些文本有助于与个性，人格，自我反思，道德等相关的内在自我的出现。该项目解决了“内在自我”和“宗教”出现的相关性。它假设，通过增加宪法的“内”，想象为不渗透，但自成一体，个性化的过程，并与此相关，轴出现的宗教个性得到加强。

This project focuses body-related metaphors from the Hebrew Bible, particularly from Psalms, Job, Jeremiah and Lamentations. Employing these metaphors, these texts contribute to the emergence of an inner self related to individuality, personhood, self-reflection, morality, etc. The project addresses the correlation of the emergence of an “inner-self” and “religion”. It hypothe-sizes that through the increasing constitution of an "inside", imagined as not permeable but self-contained, processes of individualization and, in connection with this, the axial emergence of religious individuality are intensified.
