Revisiting Classical Theorists
Edited by Vaia Touna, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, USA & Richard Newton, University of Alabama, USA
Introducing students to key historical scholars in the study of religion, each chapter starts with a representative sentence from writers once widely recognized as authoritative Each contributor provides sufficient background on the classic work in question so that readers not only understand its novelty and place in its own time but are able to arrive at a critical understanding of whether its approach to studying religion continues to be useful to them today

Struggles for Hindu Sacred Space in the Netherlands
Affect and Absence
Priya Swamy, Leiden University, The Netherlands
This book asks us to consider what is absent, rather than what is present, when studying religions Priya Swamy argues that absent religious spaces are in themselves abstract locations that painfully memorialize feelings of shame, oppression and marginalization The book focuses on the absence of temples across the global Hindu diaspora, taking the tumultuous narrative of the Devi Dhaam community in Amsterdam Southeast as an ethnographic case study to detail over 30 years of struggle to build a Hindu temple in a neighbourhood of vibrant mosques and churches

The Construction of the Supernatural in Euro-American Cultures
Something Nice about Vampires
Benson Saler, Brandeis University, USA
Describes aspects of the concept of the supernatural from the intellectual history of EuroAmerican cultures These samplings of a complex history shed light on issues in the study of religions and religion rather than attempting to provide either a lineally coherent or exhaustive account of a somewhat fraught and complicated notion Saler’s observations include uses of the term among the ancient Greeks and medieval Christian theologians and 19th- and 20th-century social scientists

Towards a New Theory of Religion and Social Change
Sovereignties and Disruptions
Paul-François Tremlett, The Open University, UK
This book argues that neither theories of secularisation nor theories of lived religion offer satisfactory accounts of religion and social change Drawing from Deleuze and Gauttari's idea of the assemblage, this books outlines an alternative Informed by classical and contemporary theories of religion and ethnography conducted in Manila and London, Tremlett re-frames religion as spatially organised flows and, foregrounding the agency of non-human actors, offers a compelling and original account of religion and social change

Rethinking 'Classical Yoga' and Buddhism
Meditation, Metaphors and Materiality
Karen O'Brien-Kop, University of Roehampton, UK
Revisiting the early systemic formation of what we now call ‘yoga’ in South Asia, this book de-centres the Eurocentric and imperialist enterprises of the 19th century Karen O'Brien-Kop reframes the cultural period of the 1st to 5th centuries CE using categorical markers from Indic intellectual history, whilst also showing that Buddhist traditions were just as concerned as Hindu traditions with meditative disciplines of yoga

Early Islam in Medina
Malik and His Muwatta’
Yasin Dutton, Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies, UK
This book considers the transmission of the Sunna through the lens of the great Madinan legal scholar, Imam Malik ibn Anas (d 179 AH/795 CE), in his renowned book al-Muwatta’ Yasin Dutton discusses not only the legal judgements preserved in this book, but also the key scholars involved in the transmission of these judgements
Overriding these textual considerations is the concept of ‘amal, or the Practice of the People of Medina Given the contested nature of ‘amal, it receives extended treatment here, allowing for a deeper understanding of the nature of Islamic law, and, by extension, of Islam itself
