Abstract
Olivier Bauer ne se demande pas si la théologie doit s’intéresser aux cinq sens, mais comment elle doit le faire ! L’auteur rappelle d’abord la manière dont nous percevons le monde avec nos cinq sens et le rôle que chacun remplit. Il démontre ensuite comment le christianisme s’est toujours exprimé autant dans des goûts, des odeurs et des textures que dans des mots, des musiques ou des images. Il souligne l’importance pour le théologien de repérer ce qui fait de nous les chrétiens que nous sommes. Il propose enfin une démarche communautaire pour choisir des goûts, des odeurs, des textures, des sons ou des images pour transmettre l’Évangile.
Olivier Bauer does not ask if theology ought to be concerned with the five senses, but how it is to do so! The author recalls first of all the way in which we perceive the world with our five senses, and the role that each of these plays. He then shows how Christianity has always expressed itself as much through tastes, smells and textures as in words, music or images. He underlines the importance for theologians to recover, that which makes us the kind of Christians we are. Finally, he proposes a communal approach to choosing the tastes, odours, textures, sounds and images in which to transmit the Gospel.
