What IS religion? Do we need an answer to such a question? Are we able to answer it, if we do not ask first some even more fundamental questions - about foundations of our knowledge, about our unavoidable quest for truth, about patterns or pattern structuring our everyday life? In what landscape do we find ourselves if we ever try to pose these questions in this particular context - in the context of redefining religion in modernity?

What IS religion? Do we need an answer to such a question? Are we able to answer it, if we do not ask first some even more fundamental questions - about foundations of our knowledge, about our unavoidable quest for truth, about patterns or pattern structuring our everyday life? In what landscape do we find ourselves if we ever try to pose these questions in this particular context - in the context of redefining religion in modernity? The collection of texts gathered in this volume, written during the author's stay at the Harvard Divinity School in Cambridge, MA some time ago, tries to delineate this landscape, referring to such seemingly distant and unrelated theories and projects as, among others, Catholic, liberation-oriented christological epistemology of J. Sobrino and I. Ellacuria, Francis Schüssler Fiorenza's foundational theology, contemporary inquiry into justification of knowledge (R. Chisholm, E. Sosa, B. Aune, K. Lehrer, W. P. Alston and others), J. Habermas' social communication theory, R. Rorty's liberal neopragmatism, or phenomenology (E. Husserl, A. Schutz). These considerations are far from being denominational - in fact, they may point to a new unexplored land.
