Memory and Religion from a Postsecular Perspective: European Remembrance and Solidarity

Editat de Zuzanna Bogumił, Yuliya Yurchuk
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 sep 2023
The book argues that religion is a system of significant meanings that have an impact on other systems and spheres of social life, including cultural memory.
The editors call for a postsecular turn in memory studies which would provide a more reflective and meaningful approach to the constant interplay between the religious and the secular. This opens up new perspectives on the intersection of memory and religion and helps memory scholars become more aware of the religious roots of the language they are using in their studies of memory. By drawing on examples from different parts of the world, the contributors to this volume explain how the interactions between the religious and the secular produce new memory forms and content in the heterogenous societies of the present-day world. These analyzed cases demonstrate that religion has a significant impact on cultural memory, family memory and the contemporary politics of history in secularized societies. At the same time, politics, grassroots movements and different secular agents and processes have so much influence on the formation of memory by religious actors that even religious, ecclesiastic and confessional memories are affected by the secular.
This volume is ideal for students and scholars of memory studies, religious studies and history.

Recenzii

'Up until this volume, no scholarly study has been dedicated to exploring the intersection of memory and religion. To this end, Memory and Religion in Postsecular Persepctive offers new vistas on how political and social change comes into being by reinterpreting well known theories.'
Cathrine Wanner, Pennsylvania State University, USA
'The book states fundamental questions of relations and boundaries between sacred and profane, religious and secular, political uses of religious narratives and media, the features and contexts of memory processes within the sphere of religion in its institutional and vernacular, lived forms. Elaborating such important issues needs intellectual courage and sensitivity allowing the in-depth and refreshing analyses, that we can find in the book.'
Małgorzata Zawiła, Jagiellonian University, Poland
