Recenzii

"There can be no doubt that the anthology Theorizing Rituals is a milestone in the study of rituals, or let’s better say: in the study of ritual theories." – Oliver Krueger, University of Fribourg
"Theorizing Rituals is without peer as an overview of theoretical approaches to ritual and as a handbook for doing theory of ritual." – Steven Engler, Mount Royal College, Calgary
"This important and useful collection of 35 articles with an introduction by the editors and epilogue on the use of several very good indexes that follow it is a successful attempt to summarize the field of ritual studies." – Frederick M. Smith, University of Iowa
