Religion and literature, identity and individual : resetting the Muslim-Christian encounterKersten, CaroolIn the first two decades of the twenty-first century inter-faith encounters have become a casualty of a paradigm shift in the thinking about the global order from the political-ideological bi-polar ... worldview of the Cold War era to a multipolar world marred by the prospect of culture wars along civilisational fault lines shaped by religiously-informed identity politics. On the back of 9/11 and other atrocities perpetrated by violent extremists from Muslim backgrounds, in particular relations with Muslims and the Islamic world are coined in binary terms of us-versus-them. Drawing on earlier research on cosmopolitanism, cul-tural hybridity and liminality, this article examines counter narratives to such modes of dichotomous thinking. It also seeks to shift away from the abstrac-tions of collective religious identity formations to an appreciation of individual interpretations of religion. For that purpose, the article interrogates the notions of cultural schizophrenia, double genealogy and west-eastern affinities developed by philosophers and creative writers, such as Daryush Shayegan, Abdelwahab Meddeb, and Navid Kermani.Vir: Poligrafi : revija za religiologijo, mitologijo in filozofijo. - ISSN 1318-8828 (Vol. 25, no. 99/100, 2020, str. 5-26)Vrsta gradiva - članek, sestavni delLeto - 2020Jezik - angleškiCOBISS.SI-ID - 46096387
