Abstract(s)
A normalização de categorias teológicas de matriz contextual‑geográfica (tais como teologias latino‑americanas, asiáticas ou africanas) faz levantar a questão acerca de uma teologia europeia. Procura‑se, neste artigo, questionar a existência de uma categoria como teologia europeia. Esta parece não surgir, no cenário teológico, enquanto tal, razão pela qual se reconhece um subdesenvolvimento de uma tal categoria. Verifica‑se que este subdesenvolvimento estará intimamente associado a um conjunto de transformações contemporâneas tanto ao nível eclesial‑teológico como ao nível mundial‑cultural, que no fundo remetem para a perda da hegemonia cultural e cristã da Europa. Ensaia‑se, por fim, uma sumária descrição do cenário teológico‑europeu, apontando três grandes perspetivas: crítica (que recolhe de outras epistemologias métodos e análises para composição do seu discurso teológico), hermenêutica (que parte da facticidade da experiência crente‑cristã e busca sobretudo o seu sentido) e mistagógica (que parte de um pressuposto em favor do dado da fé e a esta quer conduzir).
The normalization of contextual‑geographical theological categories (such as Latin‑American, Asian or African theologies) raises the question of a European Theology. This article seeks to question the existence of a category like European Theology. This category does not seem to arise in the theological setting as such, which is why an underdevelopment of such a category is recognized. This underdevelopment is closely associated with a set of contemporary transformations at both the ecclesial‑theological and world‑cultural levels, which ultimately refer to the loss of Europe’s cultural and Christian hegemony. Finally, we present a brief description of the European theological scenario, pointing out three major perspectives: critical (which assumes methods and analyzes from other epistemologies for the composition of its own theological discourse), hermeneutical (which starts from the facticity of the Belief‑Christian experience and seeks above all its meaning) and mystagogical (which starts from an assumption in favor of faith and wants to lead to it).
