English summary: What is the significance of the topic of 'space' for the self-conception of theology? Does it make sense to speak of a spatiality of God? How did biblical-theological ideals of space, space utopias, and space criticism contribute to the establishing of the specific spatial quality of our culture? What kind of result does the question of space offer for a theological anthropology? Responding critically to Peter Sloterdijk's 'Spheres' project, Tilman Beyrich's study - the author's Habilitationsschrift, submitted in 2010 to the Theological Faculty of Greifswald University - offers a systematic theological appraisal of a topic that is currently of the greatest interest in cultural sciences.

Wie haben biblisch-theologische Raum-Ideale, Raum-Utopien und Raum-Kritiken mitgewirkt bei der Einrichtung der spezifischen raumlichen Verfasstheit unserer Kultur? Welchen Ertrag bietet die Frage nach dem Raum fuer eine theologische Anthropologie? In kritischer Auseinandersetzung mit Peter Sloterdijks aSpharen-Projekt bietet die Arbeit, mit der Tilman Beyrich sich 2010 an der Theologischen Fakultat Greifswald habilitierte, eine systematisch-theologische Bestandsaufnahme zu einem in den Kulturwissenschaften hoch aktuellen Thema.
