Content:
Rationalism is a cornerstone of the modern Occident's conception of itself. However, as shown by the post-colonial reading of the term found in Max Weber's comparative studies of religion, the concept of rationalism is also an instrument for hierarchization and essentialization when religions and cultures are placed in comparison. Rationalism is by no means the privilege of modern Western civilization, as shown by this study on the theological history of Ismailism. The study's decolonized perspective concerning the rationality of religious conceptions of the world furnishes a new approach for the historical comparison of religions. Markus Wachowski, Berlin.
