Description
Résumé:Emotion, like religion, is a word that for many still conjures something mysterious. That is changing. As scholarly interest in emotion has surged over the last few decades, it has by degrees broadened its field of inquiry to include religion. As that has happened, both emotion and religion have been made more transparent, and researchers have been afforded opportunities to locate both more precisely in social and cultural contexts. The parochial view of religion as an irreducible datum and the nostalgic view of emotion as similarly insusceptible to deep critical analysis have eroded together in various investigative projects that analyze them jointly. Ole Riis and Linda Woodhead's A Sociology of Religious Emotion is one such undertaking.
