Recenzii
The secret is out! Minister and Bloesch's 2nd edition is a testament to the conversation they've generated about the field. With expanded introductions, key words, and additional content, this expanded version of Cultural Approaches to Religion further presses the benefit of examining and questioning the canon. Even more than before, this volume empowers students and scholars for this critical task!
With helpful updates and several new chapters, the authors provide incisive essays on some of the most important approaches to religious studies in recent decades. This welcome and timely introduction to disciplinary discussions will be useful to students and scholars alike.
Intentional and smart, this collection is just the right mix of comprehensive overview and intriguing detail. The book is an indispensable aid to understanding, and understanding more deeply, issues of identity, power, and subjectivity in the contemporary study of religion.
Minister and Bloesch's book is an invaluable resource for teaching. The compelling case studies illustrate not only why theory matters, but how it can be an invaluable tool in trying to understand our multivocal cultural landscapes. By focusing on theorists writing in the second half of the 20thcentury, Minister and Bloesch both productively destabilize the term "religion" and clarify the human relationships and power structures the term often obscures.
