On the Practice of Computational Theology
Abstract This essay provides an overview of the recent research field “Computational Theology.” The terminology associated with this field will first be examined in more detail. The task of Computational Theology is to address theological research questions using the tools found in the Digital Humanities. However, in this context, what does Digital Humanities mean and what concept of theology funds this complex of phenomena? Computational Theology and Digital Theology come from different academic fields. Consideration of concrete practices shapes the research field itself. Thus, in the second part of the essay, a field analysis is performed to glean insight into the concept of Computational Theology.
