Description

Changing Conversations defines the crucial role of cultural studies in the articulation and practice of religious studies disciplines. A decisive turn in the development of religious reflection, this volume seeks to redefine disciplinary self-understanding, and to promote religion as an integral component of cultural studies. Emphasizing a commitment to the marginalized perspectives--i.e. those communities lacking the resources to determine a new vision of society and so struggle to carve out their own space which more clearly embodies their own idiom, Changing Conversations presents insightful, authoritative contributions which show how religion is both embedded in and expressive of concrete social relationships and local realities. Featuring detailed cultural and political analyses, flavored with historical and feminist theory, Changing Conversations will inform every reader seeking to explore theology as a vital component of cultural studies.

Reviews

"This reader is a rich feast of little-known American religious delicacies often squeezed off the table by an older understanding of the proper menu. It brings together some of the best in recent scholarship and introduces its readers to just how wonderfully varied and complicated our story is." -- Nancy Ammerman, Professor of Sociology of Religion at the Hartford Seminary, and co-editor of Work, Family, and Religion In AmericanCulture (Routledge).
"... timely and provocative ..."
"Changing Conversations is a breakthrough in contemporary constructive theology." -- Journal of Religion
