| Summary: | Manuela Kalsky relates the search for a present-day interpretation of transcendence with the classical doctrine of atonement. A far as this doctrine is concerned she is opposed to the representation of an exclusive male concept of God, to that of an hierarchical relation between God and human beings and to the automatic linking of salvation with violence and passion. Her search for contemporary representations of transcendence brings her to a theology of a relation as is developed by, among others, Carter Heyward. This theology is no longer directed towards a divine power outside the world. And salvation and redemption, instead of self-evidently being seen as coinciding with Christ's death on the cross, are found in just relationships between people. The other is at the centre. It is Kalsky's opinion that Heyward places too much emphasis on the relation in which the difference between the 'I' and the 'Other' is conquered, while she, together with Buber and - surprisingly enough - Connie Palmen, pleads for allowing the difference to stand. Moments of the divine are not in first instance experienced in harmony but in confrontation with the other as 'other'. |
