Abstract The article is a response to Heather Walton’s IAPT presidential address titled “A Theopoetics of Practice – Re-forming in Practical Theology.” Practices examined in this article are rituals and caring related to death and dying in literature. By making use of Ronald Grimes’ so-called fictive ritual the portrayal of rituals and caring in novels by the Afrikaans novelist Karel Schoeman are examined. As a response to Walton’s address, a theopoetics is developed from the ars moriendi in the work of Schoeman.

在秋天的第二个圣周加入缓慢的朝圣：来自 Ars Moriendi 的神学。

摘要 本文是对希瑟·沃尔顿 (Heather Walton) IAPT 主席演讲的回应，题为“实践神学——实践神学的改革”。本文研究的实践是文学中与死亡和死亡相关的仪式和关怀。通过使用罗纳德·格莱姆斯所谓的虚构仪式，考察了南非荷兰语小说家卡雷尔·舒曼在小说中对仪式和关怀的描绘。作为对沃尔顿演讲的回应，从 Schoeman 著作中的 ars moriendi 发展出一种神学。
