The centrality and importance of the intersection of Christianity and culture when it comes to English-speaking countries and particularly American culture, history, and politics is beyond doubt. The Routledge Handbook of Christianity and Culture is an outstanding reference source to the key topics, problems, and debates in this exciting subject. Comprising over 35 chapters by a team of international contributors, the handbook is divided into five parts:
• Practicing Christianity
• Christianity and the Word
• Social and Political Aspects of Christianity and Culture
• Christianity and Culture in a Global Context
• Christianity and the Arts
Within these parts, central issues, debates, and problems are examined including liturgy, material Christianity, education, missions, religion and science, hermeneutics, Bible translations, Christian wars, human rights, law, social action, the secular, ecumenicalism, inter-religious relations, visual arts, literature, music, theatre, and film.
The Routledge Handbook of Christianity and Culture is essential reading for students and researchers of religious studies and Christian studies. The handbook will also be very useful for those in related fields, such as cultural studies, area studies, visual  studies, literature, and material religion.

Recenzii

"This learned volume offers a singular introduction to Christian movements and their consequential relationship to culture. Every essay conveys complicated histories with clarity, introducing readers to Christian missionary and educational activities, quests for ecumenism and human rights, interreligious relations, and social violence. Gathering leading anthropologists, theologians, historians, and ethicists, this handbook models scholarly rigor and theoretical adroitness. Students of Christianity and contemporary politics will find this an indispensable orientation to the searing sensory worlds that religion continues to create." - Kathryn Lofton, Lex Hixon Professor of Religious Studies and American Studies and Professor of History and Divinity at Yale University
"It is inconceivable that religion can exist apart from culture and vice versa. But such connections are woefully misunderstood and understudied. Until now. The Routledge Handbook of Christianity and Culture is a marvel of an edited volume. Chapter after chapter keeps delivering eye-opening knowledge, enlightening us across a vast array of time and space, written by experts from around the globe. This is an essential and highly accessible work for anyone interested in religion, culture, history, or social development and change." - Michael O. Emerson, Chavanne Fellow in Religion and Public Policy, Baker Institute for Public Policy, Rice University, co-author of Religion Matters (Routledge)
“This book matches an audacious ambition – to present a thorough, learned, and relevant exploration of every imaginable aspect of the relationship of Christianity to culture – with an incredible achievement. In this volume, both Christianity and culture are examined in many compelling aspects of their historical, global, intellectual, and practical diversity. What emerges from these serious, readable, and illuminative essays is not only a rich investigation of the nature of Christian religion, but also a rewarding study of culture in its manifold and meaningful formations.” - Matthew Ichihashi Potts, Plummer Professor of Christian Morals at Harvard Divinity School and Pusey Minister in the Memorial Church at Harvard University
