Hauptbeschreibung
No religion without imagination! The contributors to this volume look at a broad range of subjects and theories concerning a previously unjustly neglected category in religion and religious studies. Imagination – the human ability to form mental images or to envision things – influences our lives and experiences in many ways, for the most part without our realizing it. It is part of our subjective awareness, our collective consciousness – especially in religious matters. The contributors to this volume offer a wide range of subjects and theories on the central role imagination plays in religions and their sensual embodiments. It presents a number of examples from various cultures as well as the numerous theories behind them, showing imagination to be a heretofore unjustly neglected category in religion and religious studies.
