Abstract

This empirical inquiry aimed to examine the qualitative differences of the ‘God’ concept of Turkish-German Sunni Muslim children living in Germany. In this study, non-anthropomorphic drawings did not increase gradually with age. Anthromoporphic God depictions seem to be ontologically moving away from people with age. In the present study, indirect God depictions occurred six times more than the direct God depictions. ‘Religious-cultural drawings’ were the most common in the sample. The girls drew more aesthetic drawings that expressed an emotional bond with God. Boys depicted God more rationally and pragmatically in regard to human life and the world.

德国穆斯林儿童绘画中对上帝的描绘

这项实证调查旨在检验居住在德国的土耳其-德国逊尼派穆斯林儿童“上帝”概念的质的差异。在这项研究中，非拟人化的绘画并没有随着年龄的增长而逐渐增加。随着年龄的增长，人类对上帝的描述似乎正在从本体论上远离人们。在本研究中，间接的上帝描绘比直接的上帝描绘多出六倍宗教文化绘画在样本中最为常见。女孩们画了更多的美学绘画，表达了与上帝的情感纽带。男孩们对人类生活和世界的描绘更加理性和务实。

期刊介绍： The peer-reviewed Journal of Religion in Europe (JRE) provides a forum for multi-disciplinary research into the complex dynamics of religious discourses and practices in Europe, both historically and contemporary. The Journal’s underlying idea is that religion in Europe is characterized by a variety of pluralisms. There is a pluralism of religious communities that actively engage with one another; there exists a pluralism of societal systems, such as nation, law, politics, economy, science, and art, all of them interacting with religious systems; finally, in a pluralism of scholarly discourses religious studies, legal studies, history, anthropology, sociology, philosophy, and psychology are addressing the religious dynamics involved.
