Description

This Reader brings together a selection of key writings to explore the relationship between religion, media and cultures of everyday life. It provides an overview of the main debates and developments in this growing field, focusing on four major themes:

    • Religion, spirituality and consumer culture
    • Media and the transformation of religion
    • The sacred senses: visual, material and audio culture
    • Religion, and the ethics of media and culture.

      This collection is an invaluable resource for students, academics and researchers wanting a deeper understanding of religion and contemporary culture.
