Night of the encyclopedia
Recently the two great theological encyclopedias, Theologische Realenzyklopädie (TRE), and the 4th edition of Religion in Geschichte und Gegenwart (RGG), were finally completed. To celebrate, the two publishers, Mohr Siebeck and Walter de Gruyter, held a “Night of the Encyclopedia.”
At this event, Rudolf Smend gave a lecture on the important place of these encyclopedias in twentieth-century theology. The lecture is now printed in the new issue of the Zeitschrift für Theologie und Kirche: Rudolf Smend, “Zur Vollendung der Religion in Geschichte und Gegenwart und der Theologischen Realenzyklopädie,” ZThK 103:1 (2006).
