Abstract "This book explores African spirituality inside and outside of religion, investigating African traditions and perceptions in the study of spirituality across Africa and the African diaspora. It provides an interdisciplinary reflection on key issues in the field and sheds light on everyday experiences. In particular the volume celebrates the work and mentorship of Professor Jacob K. Olupona, a leading figure in the study of African spiritualities, religions in Africa, and methodological approaches to the study of religion. With chapters by an impressive range of scholars from institutions across Africa, Europe, and North America, the book makes a valuable empirical and theoretical contribution to the development of African Religious Studies"-- Provided by publisher.
