“The introduction offers a substantial account of recent theory that corrects the ‘dichotomised heritage’ of thinking about body and soul in anthropology...The volume as a whole offers a worthwhile contribution to the growing literature on corporealised religion in the contemporary world. It will be of interest to anthropologists writing on Christianity and the body and on religion and migration, as well as to readers with an interest in the study of religion outside anthropology.” ·
Social Anthropology/Anthropologie sociale
“[This volume] assembles some fascinating new examples of embodiment of culture, indicating the potential for this paradigm in religion and beyond [that has been lost for centuries]by denigrating and ignoring the body as a serious and intelligent locus of human experience and knowledge.” ·
