Isbn: 9781785337130 - straying from the straight path: how senses of failure invigorate lived religion (studies in social analysis, band 3) (18 Ergebnisse)

hardcover. Zustand: Very Good.

Hardback. Zustand: New. If piety, faith, and conviction constitute one side of the religious coin, then imperfection, uncertainty, and ambivalence constitute the other. Yet, scholars tend to separate these two domains and place experiences of inadequacy in everyday religious life - such as a wavering commitment, religious negligence or weakness in faith - outside the domain of religion 'proper.'Straying from the Straight Path breaks with this tendency by examining how self-perceived failure is, in many cases, part and parcel of religious practice and experience. Responding to the need for comparative approaches in the face of the largely separated fields of the anthropology of Islam and Christianity, this volume gives full attention to moral failure as a constitutive and potentially energizing force in the religious lives of both Muslims and Christians in different parts of the world.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - It is the first volume to focus on experiences of moral failure among both Muslims and Christians on the basis of ethnographic research. It goes beyond a tenacious and problematic dichotomy within the anthropology of Islam and Christianity between a focus on pious disciplining on the one hand and a focus on moral ambivalence and experiences of incoherence on the other. It brings together two scholarly fields that have hitherto been kept largely separate: the anthropology of Islam and the anthropology of Christianity.…
