Abstract

This article aims to introduce comparative theology to Turkish reader. Comparative theology has recently been reformulated as an academic discipline in the West in the last couple of decades, which intends to learn from other religions. While introducing comparative theology, this article also has questioned the place of this subject within Christian theology. From this perspective, it has questioned and sought to answer such controversial issues whether comparative theology is an alternative to theology of religions, or comparative theology is an independent theological branch, or comparative theology is one form of theology of religions. Eventually, this article claims that comparative theology cannot be seen as an alternative to theology of religions, nor it can be seen as a particular form of theology of religions but rather comparative theology and theology of religions can be considered two distinct areas but also completing each other.

Özet

Bu makale genel olarak karşılaştırmalı teoloji alanını Türkçe okuyucuya tanıtmayı amaçlamaktadır. Karşılaştırmalı teoloji, son yıllarda Batıda yeniden yorumlanmış ve ötekinden öğrenme düsturuyla yola çıkan akademik bir disiplin alanıdır. Bu makale karşılaştırmalı teolojiyi tanıtmakla beraber Hristiyan teolojisi içindeki yerini de sorgulayacaktır. Bu bağlamda, karşılaştırmalı teolojinin dinler teolojisine bir alternatif olup olmadığı, karşılaştırmalı teolojinin dinler teolojisinden bağımsız bir alan olarak değerlendirilip değerlendirilemeyeceği, dinler teolojisi içerisinde bir tipoloji olarak görülüp görülmediği gibi sorunlara da cevap arayacaktır. Nihayetinde bu makalede karşılaştırmalı teolojinin dinler teolojisine alternatif olarak görülemeyeceği, aynı zamanda dinler teolojisi içerisinde üç veya dört yönlü tipolojilerden biri olarak da değerlendirilemeyeceği sonucuna varılmıştır. Sonuçta karşılaştırmalı teoloji ve dinler teolojisinin birbirinden bağımsız ama birbirlerini tamamlayan iki alan olduğu iddia edilecektir.
