The Courant Research Center "Education and Religion" EDRIS is one of seven Courant Research Centers at the Georg-August University of Göttingen that were set up with funds from the Federal and State Excellence Initiative.
The CRC EDRIS investigates educational concepts and their interaction with religious beliefs, including the Greco-Roman, Christian, Jewish and Islamic cultures between the 1st and the 13th century AD.
The interdisciplinary cooperation is carried out by three junior research groups, who Focus on the early Roman Empire, the period of late antiquity and the period of classical Islam. One current research project is entitled 'Education at the Crossroads. Pagan, Jewish and Christian discourses in late antiquity (4th to 9th centuries).'
