| Abstract | "Religion in 50 More Words: A Redescriptive Vocabulary provides a succinct historical, social, and political examination of some of the key words used in the modern study of religion. Differing from the first volume's more theoretical focus, this volume analyzes more common first order descriptive terms that are used throughout the field, inviting readers to theorize their traditional vocabulary. Topics covered include: Atheism/Theism Authority Ceremony Conversion Cult Evil Faith Fundamentalism Idol Magic Pilgrimage Ritual Sacrifice Scripture Superstition Tolerance Worship Religion in 50 More Words submits such terms to a critical interrogation and subsequent redescription. This paves the way for a collective and more critical reframing of the field. The volume, along with Religion in 50 Words, provides an indispensable resource for students and academics working in the field of religious studies and cognate disciplines"-- Provided by publisher. |
