"Zeitgeist" and Christianity.The magazine "Christian World" as a medium of cultural Protestantism

《基督教世界报》(1886-1941)被认为是近代德国新教最重要的刊物之一。这是其针对更大范围公众的计划的重要组成部分。这导致了主题的广度远远超出了专业期刊的计划。同时，该报也是文化新教最突出的机构。因此，对“基督世界”的研究是对文化新教思想世界的透彻和精确的探索。由于《基督论世界》及其出版时期涵盖了德国近代史上最严重动乱的时代，它不仅是神学的杰出来源，而且也是19世纪末20世纪初的思想史和文化史的杰出来源，因此具有跨学科的相关性。在阐述这个充满思想的世界时，不可避免地要问当时提出的问题与当代的相关性，以及它们试图回答这些问题对我们现在的意义。重要的是要学习“基督世界”的优点和缺点，以应对今天的挑战。经过彻底的前期工作，谈判的巨大主题可以被捆绑成一个视角，使之有可能以模范的方式展示文化新教的宇宙思想。对基督教经典教义的处理是前台的，所以这个项目必须揭示“基督世界”的“教条”。此外，这些贡献还提供了关于新教在那个多剧变时代的世界普世论中的自我概念的信息。该杂志对文学、艺术和音乐的广泛关注，为文化新教如何用当时的文化形式解释基督教做出了杰出的贡献，同时试图将文化塑造为一项基督教任务。由于它的神学和文化历史意义，似乎有必要使更广泛的公众和研究人员能够在当今数字出版文化的标准水平上接触到《基督世界》。特别是，LMU慕尼黑大学图书馆与申请者合作，已经进行了非常劳动密集型和投资密集型的准备工作，这项工作将在本申请的帮助下结束。

The "Christliche Welt" (1886 to 1941) is regarded as one of the most important journals of German Protestantism in the modern age. It was an essential part of its program to target a larger public. This results in a thematic breadth that goes far beyond the programme of a specialist journal. At the same time, the newspaper is the most prominent organ of cultural Protestantism. The study of the "Christliche Welt" thus serves as a thorough and precise exploration of the world of ideas of cultural Protestantism. Since the "Christliche Welt" with its publication period covers the epoch of the most serious upheavals in recent German history, it is also an outstanding source not only of theology but also of the intellectual and cultural history of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and thus of interdisciplinary relevance.The systematic dimension is linked to the historical dimension. In the elaboration of this world of ideas it is inevitable to ask about the contemporary relevance of the questions raised at that time and their attempts to answer them for our present. It is important to learn from the strengths and weaknesses of the "Christliche Welt" for the challenges today.After thorough preliminary work, the enormous breadth of the topics negotiated can be bundled into a perspective that makes it possible to present the cosmos of ideas of cultural Protestantism in an exemplary way. The handling of the classical doctrines of Christianity is in the foreground, so the project has to reveal the "dogmatics" of the "Christliche Welt". In addition the contributions give information about the self-conception of Protestantism in the worldwide ecumenism in that epoch of manifold upheavals. The journal makes an excellent contribution by its extensive occupation with literature, art and music to how cultural Protestantism interpreted the Christian in the cultural forms of its time and at the same time tried to shape culture as a Christian task. Due to its theological and cultural-historical significance, it seems necessary to make the "Christliche Welt" accessible to a broader public and researchers at the level of the standards of today's digital publication culture. In particular, the University Library of the LMU Munich, in cooperation with the applicant, has already carried out very labor-intensive and investment-intensive preparatory work, which is to be brought to a conclusion with the help of this application.
