Description
Résumé:The approach to contemporary articulations of religion is still problematic within the fields of literary criticism and cultural studies. Nevertheless, given the interdisciplinary aspiration of the latter, an amalgamation of research coming from the fields of philosophy, anthropology, and psychology of religion must find a proper place within any culturalist approach to religion. In this article, we lay out a set of semantics drawing from current research around religion and culture, with the goal of posing and answering the questions of why, how, and where to tackle religion in contemporary cultural forms. Overcoming classical tensions between the religious and the secular self, as well as the analyzer and the analyzed subject, we will detach our approach from any theological inquiry. However, by adhering to a broader understanding of the concepts of mediation and practice, we will also attempt to circumvent ideology-based obstacles that often surface in the study of the myriad ways in which contemporary authors navigate religion.
