Sažetak
Based on the works of Stanley Romaine Hopper, Amos Niven Wil-der and David LeRoy Miller, the article introduces the programmatic determinants of theopoetics: 1) our topology of being has changed; 2) the Western consciousness is being transformed; 3) what matters in interpretation is the psychic depth which achieves modalities of identification through the power of imagination; 4) our theo-logoi belong to the realm of mythopoetic expressions and, therefore, theo-logos is not theo-logical but theo-poetic. The article then points to the contribution of such a project (a renewal of interest for imagination, correction of Bultmann’s programme of demythologization and poststructuralist »closing« into the text, shift towards socially relevant theology, understanding of the body beyond the Cartesian dualism of res extensa – res cogitans, emphasizing the importance of doxology, thanksgiving, experience and the everyday). Finally, the article points out a needed correction of the theopoetics project by distinguishing between the biblical and poetic discourse.
