Abstract

Postmodernism is over. A new structure of feeling has arisen in the global West. And theologians should take note. In this thesis, I develop the new paradigm of metamodern systematic theology, in which the descriptive framework of metamodernism is explained and used prescriptively. Exploring the ways in which metamodern theory and theology can engage in a conceptual dialogue, it becomes clear that the dominant structure of feeling of this day and age harbors certain interesting possibilities for theology. By crafting a ‘metamodern theological lens’, a tool for interpreting and developing metamodern strategies in order to connect to this Zeitgeist, I call theologians to take up these possibilities affirmatively, yet critically.
