Ritual Theory, Ritual Practice
Product Description
Ritual Theory, Ritual Practice
Ritual studies today figures as a central element of religious discourse for many scholars around the world. <em>Ritual Theory, Ritual Practice</em>, Catherine Bell's sweeping and seminal work on the subject, helped legitimize the field. In this volume, Bell re-examines the issues, methods, and ramifications of our interest in ritual by concentrating on anthropology, sociology, and the history of religions. Now with a new foreword by Diane Jonte-Pace, Bell's work is a must-read for understanding the evolution of the field of ritual studies and its current state.<br>
