Manufacturing Religion: The Discourse of Sui Generis Religion & the Politics of Nostalgia
ISBN: 9780195105032 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this new book, author Russell McCutcheon offers a powerful critique of traditional scholarship on religion, focusing on multiple interrelated targets. Most prominent among these are the History of Religions as a discipline; Mircea Eliade, one of the founders of the modern discipline; recent scholarship on Eliade's life and politics; contemporary textbooks on world religions; and the oft-repeated bromide that "religion" is a sui generis phenomenon. McCutcheon skillfully analyzes the ideological basis for and service of the sui generis argument, demonstrating that it has been used to...

Fabricating Religion: Fanfare for the Common e.g.
ISBN: 9783110559392 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The revised essays collected here, four of which are published for the first time, continue a longstanding argument made by McCutcheon and others: that the study of religion would benefit from self-conscious scrutiny of its tools, the interests that may drive them, and the effects that might follow their use. The chapters examine a variety of contemporary sites in the modern field where this thesis can be argued, whether involving the anachronistic use of of the category religion when studying the ancient world to current interest in so-called critical religion or critical realist approaches....

Religion and the Domestication of Dissent: Or, How to Live in a Less Than Perfect Nation
ISBN: 9781845530006 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since the events of 9/11 the representation of Islam has increasingly come adrift from its actuality. Scholars and pundits have effectively demonised a whole faith by wilfully apportioning blame and by ignoring the differences within the Islamic movement. 'Religion and the Domestication of Dissent' examines how the classifications we use to name and negotiate our social worlds - notably 'religion' - are implicitly political. The study ranges widely from contemporary film and art to the War on Terror and will be invaluable to readers interested in the politics behind the portrayal of...

Entanglements: Marking Place in the Field of Religion
ISBN: 9781781790762 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Entanglements attempts to argue against those who claim that scholarship on the category religion is only of secondary interest, in that it fails to do primary research on real religions. The volume collects eighteen responses, written across twenty years, that each exemplify the inevitably situated, give-and-take nature of all academic debate. These essays call into question the often used distinction between primary and secondary sources, between description and analysis. Published here in their original form, each contribution is accompanied by new, substantive introduction describing the...

Guide to the Study of Religion
ISBN: 9780304701766 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 574 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What is religion? Can it be defined at all? Or is it too easily defined in far too many ways so as to make a "religion" a drifting signifier or whatever one's pleasure is? Does the study of religion require special, perhaps religious, tools of analysis and explanation? What is the difference between a knowledge of religion derived from practicing it and a knowledge about religion derived from nonreligious modes of inquiry? Sooner or later, any serious student of religion must face these questionsif religious practices are to be investigated in the light of the terms and aims of the social... What is religion?

The Discipline of Religion: Structure, Meaning, Rhetoric
ISBN: 9780415274906 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Discipline of Religion is a lively critical journey through religious studies today, looking at its recent growth as an academic discipline, and its contemporary political and social meanings. Focusing on the differences between religious belief and academic religious discourse, Russell T. McCutcheon argues that the invention of religion as a discipline blurs the distinction between criticism and doctrine in its assertion of the relevance of faith as a credible object of study. In the leap from disciplinary criticism to avowal of actual cosmic and moral meaning, schools of...

ISBN: 9789004281233 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A Modest Proposal on Method further documents methodological and institutional failings in the academic study of religion. This collection of essays--which includes three previously unpublished chapters--identifies the manner in which old problems (like the presumption that our object of study is a special, deeply meaningful case) yet remain in the field. But amidst the critique there are a variety of practical suggestions for how the science of religion can become methodologically even-handed and self-reflexive--the markings of a historically rigorous exercise. Each chapter is...

Fabricating Origins
ISBN: 9781781791752 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Fabricating Origins builds on a series of posts that originally appeared, in earlier forms, on the blog "Culture on the Edge." In these posts each member of the group focused on the problem of origins, examining how we repeatedly conjure up an authorized past that suits the needs of the continually changing present. Fabricating Origins presses these short studies further by inviting ten early career scholars to each work with "Culture on the Edge" by applying, extending, even critiquing the group, to further illustrate for readers how talk of origins in the present is so much more interesting...
