Emplaced Belief - Heritage And Religion Reconsidered

~~26,43€~~ 23,79€ 10% OFF

 Emplaced Belief is an innovative interdisciplinary volume that explores the conceptual and lived relations between the academic fields of religion and heritage. The Contributors adopt a wholistic approach to consider emplacement a broad interrelation of objects, peoples, histories and places in the analysis of relations between religion and heritage. To be emplaced is to be situated, yet such positioning is the result of multiple conscious and unconscious forces, agencies, discourses, and epistemologies.

That is, the religious, social, political and cultural practices that denote heritage and the dynamics that revise, reinforce, or remove any such attribution.
