The cultural turn in historiography since the late 1990s has been essential for the establishment of religious history, bringing about radical transformations in perspectives and approaches to religion in past (and present) societies through a focus on semantics, discourses and practices in and by religious communities. This contribution to the panel will systematically approach the question how this cultural turn in religious history has started to influence and can further influence fields of research beyond its own 'discipline', how it has triggered and can trigger a 'post-secular turn' in the sense of an appropriation of perspectives and approaches from religious history by other fields of research. The concrete focus will lie on memory studies.
