Der Autor verfolgt den Versuch von Rudolf Otto, eine normative Religionswissenschaft zu entwickeln. Diese sollte auf Fragen antworten, die sich der protestantischen Theologie in Deutschland an der Wende zum 20. Jahrhundert stellten. Darüber hinaus untersucht der Autor die Wirkungsgeschichte der Ansätze von Rudolf Otto nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg. Mit Namen- und Sachregister. The author traces the development of Rudolf Otto’s attempt to construct a normative science of religion. This should respond to concerns facing Protestant theologians in Germany at the turn of the century. Moreover, he examines the reception of Otto’s ideas after World War One.
