An Independent Resource

Marginal Note is an editorially independent information resource on theology and religious studies as academic subjects. It is not part of any university, church or other institution, and it speaks for no one but itself. The portal gives no advice on matters of faith and promotes no creed.

How the Articles Are Made

The articles explain subjects, methods and study paths in plain language. They draw on information that universities, scholarly societies and academic publishers make freely available. Where details vary from one institution to another, the text says so explicitly. If you are planning a degree, always read the study and examination regulations of your chosen university yourself.

A Note on Scope

The texts are meant as orientation and are no substitute for academic advising, legal advice or pastoral counseling. Mistakes can never be ruled out entirely.
