Islam and the Tyranny of Authenticity
ISBN: 9781781792179 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Many scholars of Islam are interested in creating a liberal, inclusive, pluralistic, feminist, and modern version of the religion that they believe to be explicit in the pages of the Quran, but missed by earlier interpreters. In so doing, they create good Islam and, in the process, seek to define what does and does not get to count as authentic. As the purveyors of what they now believe to be veritable Islam, they subsequently claim that rival presentations are bastardizations based either on Orientalism and Islamophobia (if one is a non-Muslim) or misogyny and homophobia (if one is a Muslim...

Hughes presents the first major study of dialogue as a Jewish philosophical practice.

Theory and Method in the Study of Religion: Twenty Five Years on
ISBN: 9789004256019 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Theory and Method are two words that cause considerable consternation in the academic study of religion. Although everyone claims to be aware of and to engage them, the fact of the matter is that they remain poorly understood. Some see the terms as irritants that get in the way of data interpretation and translation. Others may invoke them sporadically to appear in vogue but then return quickly and myopically to their material and with little concern for the larger issues that such terms raise. To contribute to these debates, the present volume reproduces select articles from Method and...

Theory in a Time of Excess: Beyond Reflection and Explanation in Religious Studies Scholarship
ISBN: 9781781794241 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What does it mean to "do theory" in the study of religion today? The terms "method and theory" are now found in course titles, curricula/degree requirements, area/comprehensive exams, and frequently listed as competencies on the CVs of scholars from across a wide array of subfields. Are we really that theoretically and methodologically sophisticated? While a variety of groups at annual scholarly conferences now regularly itemize theorizing among the topics that they examine and carry out, it seems that few of the many examples of doing theory today involve either meta-reflection on the...

The Invention of Jewish Identity: Bible, Philosophy, and the Art of Translation
ISBN: 9780253222497 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Jews from all ages have translated the Bible for their particular times and needs, but what does the act of translation mean? Aaron W. Hughes believes translation has profound implications for Jewish identity. The Invention of Jewish Identity presents the first sustained analysis of Bible translation and its impact on Jewish philosophy from the medieval period to the 20th century. Hughes examines some of the most important Jewish thinkers--Saadya Gaon, Moses ibn Ezra, Maimonides, Judah Messer Leon, Moses Mendelssohn, Martin Buber, and Franz Rosenzweig--and their work on biblical narrative,...

Abrahamic Religions: On the Uses and Abuses of History
ISBN: 9780199934645 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Recently, the term "Abrahamic religions" has been used with exceeding frequency in the academy. We now regularly encounter academic books, conferences, and even positions (including endowed chairs) devoted to the so-called "Abrahamic religions." But what exactly are "Abrahamic religions"? Although many perceive him as the common denominator of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, Abraham remains deceptively out of reach. An ahistorical figure, some contend he holds the seeds for historical reconciliation. Touted as symbol of ecumenicism, Abraham can just as easily function as one of division and...
