Abstract

Building on the fascinating history of the Leiden chair in philosophy of religion that Wim Drees has recently published, this short note quickly delves into the history of its twin sister, the Leiden chair in the Study of Religion, whose 150th anniversary we hope to celebrate in 2027. This note attempts to understand the mutual limitations that the study of religion and philosophy of religion imposed on each other. Both fields had a huge price to pay: philosophy of religion became central in Dutch theology, but eventually disappeared, whereas the study of religion remained marginal but managed to survive.
