里德学院10月26日在波特兰办讲座:耶鲁学者讲定居殖民与美国宗教

耶鲁大学神学院的蒂萨·温格将在 10 月 26日周一,在波特兰的里德学院举办一场讲座,主题为《帝国的幽灵:定居殖民如何塑造美国宗教》,这是宗教研究领域的 Eliot讲座系列之一。讲座的标题点出了一个值得深思的命题:美国宗教的形成并非只发生在教堂与神学院内部,而是与定居殖民的历史进程交织在一起,土地、法律、族群迁徙与宗教实践共同塑造了人们理解信仰与共同体的方式。温格作为耶鲁神学院的学者,长期关注宗教与殖民历史的交叉议题,这场讲座将为波特兰的听众提供一个从历史角度重新审视美国宗教的视角,而不是停留在教义本身的讨论。里德学院作为波特兰本地的文理学院,经常举办面向公众的学术讲座,这类活动也是大学与城市社区之间的重要桥梁,学生、教师和周边居民都可以在同一个空间里交流。对于对美国宗教史、殖民史或跨学科人文研究感兴趣的波特兰居民来说,10 月 26日的这场讲座是一个难得的学习机会,具体入场安排以主办方公布的信息为准,建议有意参加者提前确认地点与入场方式。
Reed College Hosts Lecture in Portland on October 26: Yale Scholar on Settler Colonialism and American Religion
Tisa Wenger of Yale Divinity School will give a lecture at Reed College in Portland on Monday, October 26, titled 'Ghosts of Empire: How Settler Colonialism Shaped American Religion,' part of the Eliot Lecture series in religious studies. The lecture's title poses a thought-provoking proposition: the formation of American religion did not take place only inside churches and seminaries, but is intertwined with the historical process of settler colonialism, with land, law, ethnic migration, and religious practice together shaping how people understand faith and community. As a Yale Divinity School scholar, Wenger has long focused on the intersection of religion and colonial history, and the lecture will offer Portland audiences a perspective for re-examining American religion through history rather than staying within doctrinal discussion. As a local liberal arts college in Portland, Reed College frequently hosts public academic lectures, and such events are an important bridge between the university and the urban community, where students, faculty, and nearby residents can exchange ideas in the same space. For Portland residents interested in American religious history, colonial history, or interdisciplinary humanities research, the October 26 lecture is a rare learning opportunity; specific admission arrangements are subject to information published by the organizers, and those planning to attend are advised to confirm the location and admission method in advance.
