This is an introduction to the Symposium on “Science, Religion, and the Rise of Biblical Criticism,” which has been designed as a thematic section for Zygon: Journal of Religion and Science. The Symposium demonstrates the importance of and need for greater interdisciplinary collaboration between philosophers, theologians, scholars of religion, and historians in tracing the origins and development of the “conflict thesis” between science and religion. Often neglected is the role biblical criticism played in guiding and constructing narratives of conflict. This series of articles thus attempts to redress this gap in the scholarship by explicitly focusing on the advent of historical‐critical scholarship of the Bible and how it changed perceptions about “science” and “religion.”

科学，宗教和圣经批评兴起研讨会简介

这是“科学，宗教和圣经批评的兴起”专题讨论会的简介，该专题讨论会是《日贡》的主题部分：《宗教与科学杂志》。该专题讨论会表明，在追寻科学与宗教之间“冲突论点”的起源和发展过程中，哲学家，神学家，宗教学者和历史学家之间加强跨学科合作的重要性和必要性。人们常常忽略了圣经的批评在指导和建构冲突叙事中的作用。因此，本系列文章试图通过明确关注圣经的历史批判性学术的到来以及它如何改变了对“科学”和“宗教”的认识，来弥补这一学术差距。
