On the occasion of the 65th birthday of Irene Dingel, Director of the IEG from 2005 to 2022 in the Department "Abendländische Religionsgeschichte", the online project "Zugänge zur europäischen-Religionsgeschichte im Gespräch [Approaches to European Religious History in Conversation]", edited by Judith Becker, Corinna Ehlers and Andrea Hofmann, was launched to explore this question from various disciplinary, religious and confessional perspectives. From April 2021 to August 2022, each month an essay was be published and discussed online on the Cursor_ platform. The aim of the publication was to bring methods and approaches from the perspective of different disciplines into conversation with each other and enable academic exchange with a public beyond the IEG. In doing so, a new mode of discussion in the digital space was tested at the same time.

Editors, authors and other contributors to the online publication are current and former IEG researchers who collaborated with Irene Dingel at the IEG.
