Roadside Religion: In Search of the Sacred, the Strange, and the Substance of Faith
ISBN: 9780807010631 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the summer of 2002, Timothy K. Beal loaded his family into a twenty-nine-foot-long motor home and hit the rural highways of America in search of roadside religious attractions-sites like the World's Largest Ten Commandments and Precious Moments Chapel. Roadside Religion tells of his attempts to understand the meaning of these places as expressions of religious imagination and experience, and to encounter faith in all its awesome absurdity.

Reading Bibles, Writing Bodies: Identity and the Book
ISBN: 9780415126656 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Bible is often said to be one of the foundation texts of Western culture. The present volume shows that it goes far beyond being a religious text. The essays explore how religious, political and cultural identities, including ethnicity and gender, are embodied in biblical discourse. Following the authors, we read the Bible with new eyes: as a critic of gender, ideology, politics and culture. We ask ourselves new questions: about God's body, about women's role, about racial prejudices and about the politics of the written word.
Reading Bibles, Writing Bodies crosses boundaries.... The Bible is often said to be one of the foundation texts of Western culture. The present volume shows that it goes far beyond being a religious text....

The Book of Hiding offers a fluent and erudite analysis of the parallels between the Bible and contemporary discussions of gender, ethnicity and social ambiguity. Beal focuses particularly on the traditionally marginalised book of Esther, in order to examine closely the categories of self and other in relation to religion, sexism, nationalism, and the ever-looming legacies and future possibilities of annihilation. Beal applies the critical tools of contemporary theorists, such as Cixous, Irigaray and Levinas, challenging widely held assumptions about the moral and life-affirming...

Mel Gibson's Bible: Religion, Popular Culture, and the Passion of the Christ

But the film has also, and more importantly, been a religious phenomenon. Mel Gibson's professed intent was to create not just a cinematic experience but a spiritual one.
