Trauma and Lived Religion : Transcending the Ordinary Hardback
Edited by R. Ruard Ganzevoort, Srdjan Sremac
Part of the Palgrave Studies in Lived Religion and Societal Challenges series
Hardback
Description
This book focuses on the power of the ‘ordinary’, ‘everydayness’ and ‘embodiment’ as keys to exploring the intersection of trauma and the everyday reality of religion.
It critically investigates traumatic experiences from a perspective of lived religion, and therefore, examines how trauma is articulated and lived in the foreground of people’s concrete, material actualities.
Trauma and Lived Religion seeks to demonstrate the vital relevance between the concept of lived religion and the study of trauma, and the reciprocal relationship between the two.
A central question in this volume therefore focuses on the key dimensions of body, language, memory, testimony, and ritual.
It will be of interest to academics in the fields of sociology, psychology, and religious studies with a focus on lived religion and trauma studies, across various religions and cultural contexts.
