New Approaches to the Study of Religion Textual, Comparative, Sociological, and Cognitive Approaches

Internationally recognized scholars from many parts of the world provide a critical survey of recent developments and achievements in the global field of religious studies. The work follows in the footsteps of two former publications: Classical Approaches to the Study of Religion, edited by Jacques Waardenburg (1973), and Contemporary Approaches to the Study of Religion, edited by Frank Whaling (1984/85). New Approaches to the Study of Religion completes the survey of the comparative study of religion in the twentieth century by focussing on the past two decades. Many of the chapters, however, are also pathbreaking and point the way to future approaches.Antes, Peter is the author of 'New Approaches to the Study of Religion Textual, Comparative, Sociological, and Cognitive Approaches', published 2004 under ISBN 9783110181753 and ISBN 3110181754.
