Recenzii
’... provides a wealth of information and theory to show how people create and re-create religious meaning and in turn find religious sustenance.’ Communication Research Trends ’... a fascinating study of the ways in which religious sentiment becomes inextricably imbedded in, and expressed by and through, landscape, architecture, clothing, music and dance. At its best it breaks the shackles of narrow disciplinary boundaries and conventional academic inhibitions, identifying a network of connections as to how the numinous is manifested through the material. I will continue to dip into this book, revelling in the quality of the writing and the scholarship, confident that new insights will reveal themselves.’ Culture and Religion ’In reading all the essays, one is struck by the unexpected directions from which some contributors come to topics in original and illuminating ways that throw unexpected light on larger adjacent areas in the sociology of religion.’ New Blackfriars ’... a varied collection on architecture, music, pilgrimage, dance, witchcraft, and dress... There are real strengths here...’ Sociology of Religion
Descriere
The material symbol has become central to understanding religion in late modernity. This book explores the lived experience of religion through its material expressions. Cutting across cultures, senses, disciplines and faiths, and including chapters on music, architecture, festivals, ritual, artifacts, dance, dress and magic, this book offers an invaluable resource to students of sociology and anthropology of religion, art, culture, history, liturgy, theories of late modern culture, and religious studies.
