Memory, Music, and Religion: Morocco's Mystical Chanters: Studies in Comparative Religion

Autor Earle H. Waugh
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mai 2005
In this book, a study of the interplay between memory, music, and religion, Earle Waugh opens new areas of thought, particularly regarding a theme that cuts across religious traditions: the role of memory in religious formation. Through rituals of dhikr, or remembrance, the old forms of music and word blend into a new form of worship for today.
