DESCRIPTION:From Content and Structure to Structure of Content: Text Netwo
 rk Analysis in the Study of Religions\nFrederik Elwert (KHK postdoc & CERE
 S)\nResearch in the study of religions moves between the poles of social s
 tructure (e.g.\, religious institutions\, social settings) and religious c
 ontent (e.g.\, scriptures\, teachings). The sociology of religion often ha
 s to defend against the claim that she favours the study of social structu
 res over the analysis of religious content or\, as Weber put it\, interest
 s over ideas. Philological approaches in contrast have been accused of ove
 remphasising scriptures at the expense of social context and lived religio
 n. Recent approaches in text-based network analysis promise to bridge this
  divide\, at least partially. They allow to visualise and study structures
  internal and external to texts\, in conjunction with their content. On th
 e methodological level\, they can be discussed with regard to their implic
 ations and limitations. The paper will present findings from the completed
  project SeNeReKo as well as an outlook for future directions in this fiel
 d of study.\nThis paper will be presented in panel Challenging Traditional
  Sociology of Religions (panel 27-135 | 223)
