The Craft of Ritual Studies
ISBN: 9780195301427 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In religious studies, theory and method research has long been embroiled in a polarized debate over scientific versus theological perspectives. Ronald L. Grimes shows that this debate has stagnated, due in part to a manner of theorizing too far removed from the study of actual religious practices. A worthwhile theory, according to Grimes, must be practice-oriented, and practices are most effectively studied by field research methods. The Craft of Ritual Studies melds together a systematic theory and method capable of underwriting the cross-cultural, interdisciplinary study of...

Marrying & Burying: Rites of Passage in a Man's Life
ISBN: 9781453778975 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Significant life passages are marked by ritual in virtually every culture. Weddings and funerals are only two of the most obvious ones. A wide variety of rites, both traditional and invented, also mark birth and coming of age. However, many major transitions remain unmarked. Marrying & Burying tells an intensely personal story about the role of ritual in Ron Grimes's own rich and sometimes difficult life. His critique of ritual impoverishment in North America reveals the extraordinary potential that ritualizing holds for negotiating and enriching transitions, both exalted and mundane. Always...

Deeply into the Bone: Re-Inventing Rites of Passage
ISBN: 9780520236752 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 393 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over the past two decades, North Americans have become increasingly interested in understanding and reclaiming the rites that mark significant life passages. In the absence of meaningful rites of passage, we speed through the dangerous intersections of life and often come to regret missing an opportunity to contemplate a child's birth, mark the arrival of maturity, or meditate on the loss of a loved one. Providing a highly personal, thoroughly informed, and cross-cultural perspective on rites of passage for general readers, this book illustrates the power of rites to help us navigate life's...

Rite Out of Place: Ritual, Media, and the Arts
ISBN: 9780195301458 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Much ritual studies scholarship still focuses on central religious rites. For this reason, Grimes argues, dominant theories, like the data they consider, remain stubbornly conservative. This book issues a challenge to these theories and to popular conceptions of ritual. Rite Out of Place collects 10 revised essays originally published in widely varied sources across the past five years. Grimes has selected for inclusion those essays that track ritual as it haunts the edges of cultural boundaries-ritual converging with theater, ritual on television, ritual at the edge of natural...

Marrying & Burying: Rites of Passage in a Man's Life
ISBN: 9780367009984 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Significant life passages are marked by ritual in virtually every culture. Weddings and funerals are just two of the most institutionalized yet troubled ones in our own society. A wide variety of rites, both traditional and invented, also mark birth, coming of age, and other major transitions. In Marrying & Burying Ronald Grimes, a founder of the new interdisciplinary field of ritual studies, tells an intensely personal story about the role of ritual in his own rich and sometimes difficult life. His critique of ritual impoverishment in North America reveals the extraordinary potential that...

Ritual Criticism: Case Studies in Its Practice, Essays on Its Theory
ISBN: 9781453758243 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This book takes an interdisciplinary approach to a topic seldom written about: the evaluation of rites. Enacting ritual and thinking critically are often imagined as mutually exclusive activities, but Ritual Criticism demonstrates their complementarity by presenting case studies in which ritual and criticism require one another. The cases are drawn from contemporary, urban, North American social contexts in which specific rites are undergoing evaluation, interpretation, or revision. The cases eventuate in essays, more theoretical treatments of critical issues in ritual studies. The rituals...

Symbol and Conquest: Public Ritual and Drama in Santa Fe
ISBN: 9781453781395 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Symbol and Conquest makes a number of innovative analytical distinctions which Professor Grimes interweaves skillfully with his descriptions of the rituals and symbols of the two dominant public celebrations in modern Santa Fe. This New Mexican city is an especially appropriate subject for the study of symbolic action in a contemporary setting. Santa Fe not only has inherited a rich store of icons, emblems, and insignia from its dramatic past and an arena of conflict and alliance between "Hispanic," "Anglo," and "Indo" peoples and cultures, but also has generated new "signifiers." In addition...

ISBN: 9780199735235 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Rituals can provoke or escalate conflict, but they can also mediate it and although conflict is a normal aspect of human life, mass media technologies are changing the dynamics of conflict and shaping strategies for deploying rituals.
