To what extent is religion inherently textual? What might the term 'textual' mean in relation to religious faith and practice? Addressing these questions, this book aims to disclose the various ways in which meaning can be read of sacred writing and from discourses such as the body, the built and natural environment, drama and ritual.
To what extent is religion inherently textual? What might the term ''textual'' mean in relation to religious faith and practice? These are the two key questions addressed by the eleven thought-provoking essays collected in this volume. Accounts of the content and structure of sacred texts are commonplace. The rather more adventurous aim of this book is to disclose (within the context of religion) the various ways in which meaning can be read of more or less obviously sacred writing and from discourses such as the body, the built and natural environment, drama and ritual.
