Religion: The Basics: Edition 2
O tej e-knjigi
From silver rings to ringtones and from clubs to headscarves, we often find the cultural role and discussion of religion in unexpected ways.
Now in its second edition, Religion: The Basics remains the best introduction to religion and contemporary culture available. The new edition has been fully revised and updated, and includes new discussions of:
- the study of religion and culture in the twenty-first century
- texts, films and rituals
- cognitive approaches to religion
- globalization and multiculturalism
- spirituality in the West
- popular religion.
With new case studies, linking cultural theory to real world religious experience and practice, and guides to further reading, Religion: The Basics is an essential buy for students wanting to get to grips with this hotly debated topic.
