Abstract
The article examines the role of narrative discourse in religious education and communication as represented in Kirsten Andersen’s Kantian approach. In Hegel’s Lutheran perspective figurative thinking is deconstructed in forms of interpretive narrative, the topos of the speculative Good Friday. On this account the words (and deeds) of Jesus should be understood as an unprecedented revolutionary parrhesia. Hegel’s pervasive awareness of the linguistic mediation, translation and appropriation anticipates the role of language and communication in hermeneutics and deconstruction. The proposed alternative to the Kantian account is inspired by Paul Ricœur, Günter Bader, Niklas Luhmann, Jacques Derrida, Catherine Malabou and Vladimir Jankélévitch.
