Wie lassen sich die Themen Sterben und Tod in der Weiterbildung vermitteln? Eine Modulskizze im Spannungsfeld gesellschaftlicher Tabuisierung und Inszenierung

Abstract

Churches continue to play an important role in the social discourse on dying and death and make a significant contribution to awareness, networking, education and support. The guiding question here is: How can the topics of dying and death be conveyed in the further training of pastoral caregivers in such a way that their own views are reflected upon and incorporated into the discourse surrounding the approach to dying and death? The article presents poimenic, empirical, historical, and hermeneutical approaches and addresses both traditional ideas and current discourses.
