Transforming Bodies and Religions: Powers and Agencies in Europe: Routledge Critical Studies in Religion, Gender and Sexuality
Editat de Mariecke van den Berg, Lieke Schrijvers, Jelle Wiering, Anne-Marie Korteen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 apr 2022
This volume is the outcome of the intensive collaboration of the authors, who for years have been meeting regularly in Utrecht, the Netherlands, to discuss themes related to religion and ‘the challenge of difference’, with an added afterword by Prof. Pamela Klassen from the University of Toronto. The book is divided in three subsections that focus on particular types of embodiment: body politics in governmental and NGO organisations; the role of the body in literary and/or autobiographical narratives; and ethnographic case studies of bodies in daily life.
Doing so, it provides an innovative exploration of contemporary religion and the body. It will, therefore, be of great interest to scholars of Religious Studies, Gender and Sexuality Studies, Post-Colonial Studies, Anthropology, Sociology, Theology, and Philosophy.
