Summary/Abstract: For Kieran Flanagan, British sociologist exploring the relationship between theology and sociology, Catholicism is a ‘creative liminal state’. In a conversation with Keith Tester he talks about how his experience of coming back to religion influenced his sociological interests, materializing in works about liturgy and visual culture, among others. Referring to ‘postsecular’ motifs present in classics, such as Bauman, Bourdieu, Goffman, Simmel and Weber, Flanagan opens up new problems and perspectives, previously ignored by social scholars who lacked the ‘religious ear’. He also tells us about a forthcoming book on Sociology at Prayer. According to Tester, this seemingly awkward marriage between sociology and theology may indeed foretell deeper change, which sociologists may soon have to face.
