The use of erotic pleasures : A deal with the fear of the impure pleasure in the pursuit of a theology of lust (English)
Abstract [sv]

Denna uppsats har som syfte att undersöka de teologiska aspekterna av människans sexuella begär. Genom en poetisk-filosofisk analys av Alina Reyes erotiska novell Slaktaren och 1300-tals mystikern Julian av Norwichs bok Uppenbarelser av den gudomliga kärleken ämnar uppsatsen belysa relevanta teologiska teman och frågeställningar gällande sexualitetens koppling till teologin och talet om eros som begärets gudomliga ursprung. Studien syftar också till att utforska hur de teman om sexuellt begär som framträder genom denna analys kan anses korrelera med de samtida teologerna Carter Heyward och Ola Sigurdsons syn på sexualiteten. Som ett teoretiskt ramverk används fem hypoteser gällande sexualitet som är hämtade från Mark D. Jordans resonemang i boken The Ethics of Sex.

Abstract [en]

The purpose of this essay is to examine the theological aspects of human sexual desire. Through a poetic-philosophical analysis of Alina Reye's erotic novel The Butcher and 14th Century Mystic Julian of Norwich's book Revelations of the Divine Love, the essay aims to shed light on relevant theological themes and issues concerning sexuality's connection to theology and the talk of eros as the divine origin of desire. The study also aims to explore how the themes of sexual desire that emerge through this analysis can be considered to correlate with the contemporary theologians Carter Heyward and Ola Sigurdson's views on sexuality. As a theoretical framework, five hypotheses regarding sexuality are used, which are taken from Mark D. Jordan's reasoning in the book The Ethics of Sex.
