About the Author

Julian Hensold is a PhD candidate at the Theological Faculty of Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. He studied Protestant Theology, Philosophy and Religious Studies at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität in Heidelberg and Yale University in New Haven. In 2013 Julian completed his studies with the 1.Theol. Examen at ELKB (Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bavaria). His research interests include theories about religion, classical and contemporary concepts of subjectivity and subjectivation, theories of cultural practice and performativity, post-Kantian Idealist philosophies of religion (mainly Hegel and late Natorp), liberal theological thought as well as practical-theological questions concerning an actualization of Christian religious practice in the 21th century. In his dissertation project Julian focuses on a problem-oriented re-explication of Hegel’s philosophy of religion concerned with the question of how to adequately understand and justify religious practice in a (late-)modern setting of subjectivation.

His dissertation takes the early works of Moroccan philosopher Mohammed 'Abed al-Jabri as a means of exploring al-Jabri's development of an epistemologically-predicated notion of Arab modernity and its function as a contestation of the prevailing ideological narratives (both internal and external) in the context of Moroccan independence.

Becoming Jewish in an Urban Scene” examines a newly emerging Jewish-Hebrew scene in Berlin and investigates how religious and secular belonging are negotiated under specific discursive representations.
