The Oxford Handbook of the Study of Religion provides a comprehensive overview of the academic study of religion. Written by an international team of leading scholars, its fifty-one chapters are divided thematically into seven sections. The first section addresses five major conceptual aspects of research on religion. Part two surveys eleven main frameworks of analysis, interpretation, and explanation of religion. Reflecting recent turns in the humanities and social sciences, part three considers eight forms of the expression of religion. Part four provides a discussion of the ways societies and religions, or religious organizations, are shaped by different forms of allocation of resources. Other chapters in this section consider law, the media, nature, medicine, politics, science, sports, and tourism. Part five reviews important developments, distinctions, and arguments for each of the selected topics. The study of religion addresses religion as a historical phenomenon and part six looks at seven historical processes. Religion is studied in various ways by many disciplines, and this Handbook shows that the study of religion is an academic discipline in its own right. The disciplinary profile of this volume is reflected in part seven, which considers the history of the discipline and its relevance. Each chapter in the Handbook references at least two different religions to provide fresh and innovative perspectives on key issues in the field. This authoritative collection will advance the state of the discipline and is an invaluable reference for students and scholars.

Tradition
A Critical Primer
AvSteven Engler
Inbunden, Engelska, 2024
962 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book looks at the concept of tradition as used in the discourse of the study of religion. It examines the history of meanings of the concept, the range of uses in the field of religious studies at present, theoretical perspectives, core conceptual implications, and recommendations for clearing the air of a key theoretical tension surrounding the concept of the “invention of tradition.”It problematizes the use of ‘tradition’ as a synonym for ‘religion.’ It engages critically with important theoretical works, ranging from Robert Redfield’s Peasant Society and Culture (1956), Edward Shils’ Tradition (1981) and Hobsbawm/Ranger’s The Invention of Tradition (1992) to Pascal Boyer’s The Naturalness of Religious Ideas (1994) and Harvey Whitehouse’s Modes of Religiosity (2004). It reviews the small but growing list of publications reflecting on this category in the study of religions itself. Discussions and arguments are illustrated with examples from a variety of religions, including Catholic, Protestant and Orthodox Christianities, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Candomblé, South Pacific cultures, and different western esoteric streams (not least Traditionalism).

Global Phenomenologies of Religion
An Oral History in Interviews
AvSatoko Fujiwara,David Thurfjellm. fl.
Inbunden, Engelska, 2021
1 211 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The phenomenology of religion is a branch of religious study that claims to represent the core of the study of religion as an autonomous discipline. First used as a term by the Dutch scholar Chantepie de la Saussaye in 1887, it was developed by Gerdardus van der Leeuw in the 1930s and 40s, became popular in the 1960s and 70s and then subsequently met severe criticism, virtually disappearing by the beginning of the twenty-first century. This volume investigates how the phenomenology of religion was accepted and developed in different national contexts. It consists of interviews with senior scholars, who are experts on the development of the phenomenology of religion in their countries, along with commentary and analysis. It examines the reasons why it disappeared so abruptly in each country and reveals how scholars of religion currently evaluate the phenomenology of religion in their countries.

Historicizing "Tradition" in the Study of Religion

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This collection of essays analyzes ‛tradition’ as a category in the historical and comparative study of religion. The book questions the common assumption that tradition is simply the “passing down” or imitation of prior practices and discourses. It begins from the premise that many traditions are, at least in part, social fabrications, often deliberately serving particular ideological ends. Individual chapters examine a wide variety of historical periods and religions (Congolese, Buddhist, Christian, Confucian, Cree, Esoteric, Hawaiian, Hindu, Islamic, Jewish, New Religious Movement, and Shinto). Different sections of the book consider tradition's relation to three sets of issues: legitimation and authority; agency and identity; modernity and the West.

Nachhaltige Ernährung als Teil der Großen Transformation

Aktuell steht die Weltbevölkerungen vor vielen entscheidenden Herausforderungen, die es zu bewältigen gilt. Der globale Klimawandel und die zunehmende Ressourcenverknappung sind dabei die bekanntesten Beispiele. Eine zentrale Herausforderung wird bei der Debatte gerne vernachlässigt, herabgewürdigt oder gar vergessen: Nämlich das Ernährungsproblem. Weltweit leiden immer noch ca. 850 Millionen Menschen an chronischer Unterernährung. Das Problem ist dabei kein Phänomen das strikt auf den Afrikanischen Kontinent begrenzt ist. Vielmehr sind viele Staaten im sogenannten »Globalen Süden« von Hunger und Mangelernährung bedroht. Die globale Unterernährung stellt aber nur eine Seite der Medaille dar. Spätestens seit dem Jahr 2008 ist das Problem der weltweiten Überernährung gleichermaßen dramatisch. Nach Schätzungen von diversen Organisationen sind ca. 1,4 Milliarden Menschen übergewichtig und knapp eine halbe Milliarde Menschen fettleibig (BMI > 30). Nimmt man all diese Zahlen zusammen, sind ca. 30% der Weltbevölkerung entweder unter- oder überernährt, was zu starken Belastungen für Gesundheit, Wirtschaft, etc. führt.Die Lösung für beide Probleme ist der Wandel zu nachhaltigen Ernährungssystemen. Der vorliegende Sammelband setzt sich mit diesen Themen auseinander und stellt sie in den Kontext einer neuen »Großen Transformation«.

The Brill Handbook of Contemporary Religions in Brazil provides an unprecedented overview of Brazil’s religious landscape. It offers a full, balanced and contextualized portrait of contemporary religions in Brazil, bringing together leading scholars from both Brazil and abroad, drawing on both fieldwork and detailed reviews of the literatures. For the first time a single volume offers overviews by leading scholars of the full range of Brazilian religions, alongside more theoretically oriented discussions of relevant religious and culture themes. This Handbook’s three sections present specific religions and groups of traditions, Brazilian religions in the diaspora, and issues in Brazilian religions (e.g., women, possession, politics, race and material culture).
