Beskrivning
This book is an exploration of the linguistic, structural, historical, and thematic relationships of religion and drama. It is not an attempt to sacralize drama so that it becomes a substitute for religion, nor will it reduce religion to its aesthetic dimension. What does religion tell us about drama, and what does drama tell us about religion? What have been their inter-actions in our tradition?The conversation between religion and culture, drama and Christianity, needs to be ongoing. This book is a contribution to the dialogue, asking questions, pointing towards possible answers, and encouraging others to join in the conversation.

Recensioner i media

Nelvin Vos' insightful study of the interrelationship of theater and religion, drama and worship, shows a deep appreciation for the ways that both depend on a holy and living presence...Theologians no less than theatre historians will appreciate this well-crafted consideration of how this powerful artistic medium has the ability to reveal mysteries, tell truths, and transform hearts.
