Abstract

The relationship between content and form was one of the most difficult but the most central topics throughout Western philosophy. They have also been one of the very important pairs of concepts in the fields of art and literature since the 18th century. The issue of the unity of content and form has also become an important issue not only in theology but also in language-related studies. Its confrontation can be said to have been reinforced by a paradigm shift called the empirical change after 1968. Such a change took place in the field of preaching as ‘the new homiletics’ movement.<BR> Now, as we enter ‘the era after the new homiletics movement’, issues such as the search for the unity of content and form in the crisis of church and preaching are bound to be raised again. This paper seeks to explore this problem, which can be said to be the longing task of Christian homiletics, in a pioneering way based on Rudolf Bohren’s homiletics and the emerging name theology. In such a case, what I want to seek will be a ‘name-theological, pneumatological, and aesthetic homiletics’, which pursues the unity of content and form, and uses the linguistics of faith, hope, and love. Therefore, I intend to open the way for the reconstruction of Christian theology and renewal of the church by continuously seeking alternatives through name theology.
