Practically Religious: Worldly Benefits and the Common Religion of Japan
ISBN: 9780824820909 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Praying for practical benefits (genze riyaku) is a common religious activity in Japan. Despite its widespread nature and the vast numbers of people who pray and purchase amulets and talismans for everything from traffic safety and education success to business prosperity and protection from disease, the practice has been virtually ignored in academic studies or relegated to the margins as a uh_product of superstition or an aberration from the true dynamics of religion. Basing their work on a fusion of textual, ethnographic, historical, and contemporary studies, the authors of this volume...

Religious Violence in Contemporary Japan: The Case of Aum Shinrikyo
ISBN: 9780824823405 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This study looks at Aum's claims about itself and asks why a religious movement ostensibly focused on yoga, meditation, asceticism, and pursuit of enlightenment became involved in violent activities. Reader places the sect in the context of contemporary Japanese religious patterns, discussing developments in Asahara Shoko's personality and teachings, Aum's millennialism and its developing hostility toward society, and compares Aum with other religious and political movements that turned to violence, both in Japan and elsewhere. He concludes that Aum is not unique, nor is it solely a political...

Pilgrimage in the Marketplace
ISBN: 9780415709194 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The study of pilgrimage often centres itself around miracles and spontaneous populist activities. While some of these activities and stories may play an important role in the emergence of potential pilgrimage sites and in helping create wider interest in them, this book demonstrates that the dynamics of the marketplace, including marketing and promotional activities by priests and secular interest groups, create the very consumerist markets through which pilgrimages become established and successful - and through which the 'sacred' as a category can be sustained. By drawing... The study of pilgrimage often centres itself around miracles and spontaneous populist activities. While some of these activities and stories may pl... |

Making Pilgrimages: Meaning and Practice in Shikoku
ISBN: 9780824829070 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This study involves a fourteen-hundred-kilometer-long pilgrimage around Japan's fourth largest island, Shikoku. In traveling the circuit of the eighty-eight Buddhist temples that make up the route, pilgrims make their journey together with Kobo Daishi (774-835), the holy miracle-working figure who is at the heart of the pilgrimage. Once seen as a marginal practice, recent media portrayal of the pilgrimage as a symbol of Japanese cultural heritage has greatly increased the number of participants, both Japanese and foreign. In this absorbing look at the nature of the pilgrimage, Ian... This study involves a fourteen-hundred-kilometer-long pilgrimage around Japan's fourth largest island, Shikoku.

Reconstructing Practical Theology: The Impact of Globalization
ISBN: 9780754666608 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book argues that the discipline of practical theology needs to be re-shaped in the light of the impact of various influences created through the encounter with globalization. Essential to this is an engagement with the insights of other disciplines, e.g. sociology, politics, economics and philosophy. The content and authority of the Christian tradition is being challenged by the blurred encounters with more fluid lifestyles, alternative spiritualities and indeed other faiths as mediated through information technology and the breakdown of attachments to all forms of institutional life....
