Muslim and Catholic Pilgrimage Practices: Explorations Through Java: Routledge Studies in Pilgrimage, Religious Travel and Tourism

Autor Albertus Bagus Laksana
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 2016
Exploring the distinctive nature and role of local pilgrimage traditions among Muslims and Catholics, Muslim and Catholic Pilgrimage Practices draws particularly on south central Java, Indonesia. In this area, the hybrid local Muslim pilgrimage culture is shaped by traditional Islam, the Javano-Islamic sultanates, and the Javanese culture with its strong Hindu-Buddhist heritage. This region is also home to a vibrant Catholic community whose identity formation has occurred in a way that involves complex engagements with Islam as well as Javanese culture. In this respect, local pilgrimage tradition presents itself as a rich milieu in which these complex engagements have been taking place between Islam, Catholicism, and Javanese culture. Employing a comparative theological and phenomenological analysis, this book reveals the deeper religio-cultural and theological import of pilgrimage practice in the identity formation and interaction among Muslims and Catholics in south central Java. In a wider context, it also sheds light on the larger dynamics of the complex encounter between Islam, Christianity and local cultures.

Recenzii


"This finely crafted ethnography reminds us of the rich cultural traditions of Java, and its historical ability to constantly adapt to, absorb, and transform influences from outside. It also represents an important contribution to contemporary reality when pointing to ingredients that can be utilized in countering forces that seek to challenge the historical fabric of community in Java, and to provide the bases of reconciliation where tears have already appeared."
Joost Coté, Monash University
’Six places of pilgrimage in Java (three Muslim, three Catholic) provide the basis for an exciting renewal of comparative theology, clearly described in a balanced and well written book.’ Karel Steenbrink, Utrecht University, The Netherlands ’Muslim and Catholic Pilgrimage Practices is a splendid contribution to pilgrimage studies. Laksana harmoniously combines historical and textual detail with insights from his own journeys along the pilgrim’s path. Attuned to the sacred geographies of Java’s Muslim and Christian traditions, he shows us how to do multi-dimensional comparative studies that enhance rather than diminish the religions compared. This book points a way forward in the study of lived religion, in the comparativist’s workshop, and in the theological conversations required of faith traditions today.’ Francis X. Clooney, Harvard University, USA ’Laksana’s style is easily accessible to the college or university student in religious studies, Christian-Muslim relations and intercultural dialogue. The concrete examples of individuals and local communities on pilgrimage brings his theoretical background to life. The book is complete with a glossary of terms and historic personalities which is useful for the reader not familiar with Indonesia, an extensive bibliography of primary and secondary sources, and a compact index that guides the reader back to key sections as needed. A delight to read, and a joy to pass on.’ Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations
