Redemptive Suffering in Islam : A Study of the Devotional Aspects of Ashura in Twelver Shi'ism Hardback
by Mahmoud M. Ayoub
Part of the Religion and Society series
Hardback
Description
The series Religion and Society (RS) contributes to the exploration of religions as social systems- both in Western and non-Western societies; in particular, it examines religions in their differentiation from, and intersection with, other cultural systems, such as art, economy, law and politics.
Due attention is given to paradigmatic case or comparative studies that exhibit a clear theoretical orientation with the empirical and historical data of religion and such aspects of religion as ritual, the religious imagination, constructions of tradition, iconography, or media.
In addition, the formation of religious communities, their construction of identity, and their relation to society and the wider public are key issues of this series.
