Description
Summary:The article revolves around the question of what makes revelational events revelatory in a religiously significant sense. Based on a specific notion of ‘event’, on a phenome-nological reflection on the peculiarities of revelation, and an aligned hermeneutics a concept of ‘revelatory events’ is proposed which also identifies a special place for nar-ration and narratives and for the act of reading as such: in reading the receiving subject is constituted as the subject to whom revelation is given such that the subject becomes transformatively connected to the revelatory event and its eventfulness.
