Sommario/riassunto

For more than thirty years, Jonathan Z. Smith has been among the most important voices of critical reflection within the academic study of religion. He has also produced a significant corpus of essays and lectures on teaching and on the essential role of academic scholarship on religion in matters of education and public policy.  Smith's writings on these crucial issues for education have been largely inaccessible until now.
