Izlaganje ima za cilj da kritički sagleda odnos između (praktične) empirijske teologije i društvenih nauka na primeru socijalne konstrukcije religijske konverzije. Praktična-empirijska teologija se razume kao teorija religijske prakse koja je u stalnom dijalogu sa ostalim društvenim naukama. Pozivajući se na teorijsko-praktičnu pozadinu Ganzevoorta, Habermasa i Riceoura, autor naglašava da se praktična teologija danas razume kao hermeneutička disciplina, te se stoga mora posmatrati kao religijska interpretacija ljudskog iskustva (lived experience). U drugom delu izlaganja autor daje primer društvene konstrukcije konverzije koristeći narativni metod pri istraživanju svedočanstava o konverziji. U zaključku autor daje svoju ocenu narativno-društveno-konstrukcionističkog pristupa sa stanovišta praktične (empirijske) teologije. Autor naglašava da perspektiva društvenog konstrukcionizma otvara prostor za konstruktivni dijalog između društvenih nauka i praktične (empirijske) teologije.

Ključne reči: empirijska teologija, hermeneutička metoda, odnos religiologije i teologije, konverzija, društveni konstrukcionizam.

David Tombs: Images of an Execution: News Media, Sexualised Violence and Theology

The paper starts with the image from Goya’s Disasters of War (1863) featured on the cover of Susan Sontag’s influential work Regarding the Pain of Others (2003) as the departure point for an exploration of depictions of sexualised violence in news media. Goya’s image depicts a man hanged from a tree with his trousers pulled down. Most readers see the image as an execution, but few recognise the strong implication of sexualised violence. The presentation examines recent media coverage of case studies featuring sexualised violence, for example: the Death of Gaddafi (2011) and the Tyler Hicks photos of an execution of a prisoner in Afghanistan (2001). It shows how both TV and newspaper coverage of contemporary events tended to obscure, downplay or sanitise sexualised violence as in some ways ‘unspeakable’. It suggests that more attention should be given to the implications of portraying unspeakable violence and the ethical issues it raises. Whilst there are unlikely to be easy answers, a more frank and constructive conversation is needed on sexualised violence in conflict and its relationship to shame. How can responses navigate between the Scylla of a silent complicity on the one side, and the Charybdis of re-traumatisation or further shame on the other side? The paper argues that any ethical response should be guided by an affirmation of the dignity of the victims. The final part of the paper links this discussion to a more honest approach to an apparently unspeakable element of crucifixion in Christian theology – the sexualised violence of the cross.

Keywords: Sexualised violence (sexual violence); Crucifixion; Media and violence; Shame
