Introducing narrative cultures as an integrative framework of analysis, the volume builds a bridge between classical content-based approaches to narrative sources and the aesthetic study of religions as constituted by sensory and mediated practices. Studying stories in conjunction with the role performative acts of storytelling play in the cultivation of the senses, the contributors explore the efficacy of storytelling formats in narrative cultures from Antiquity until today, in regions and cultures across the globe".Supplements to Method & theory in the study of religion ;Volume 14.StorytellingReligious aspectsNarration (Rhetoric)Religious aspectsAestheticsReligious aspectsSenses and sensationReligious aspectsReligion and cultureStorytellingReligious aspects.Narration (Rhetoric)Religious aspects.AestheticsReligious aspects.Senses and sensationReligious aspects.Religion and culture.208Johannsen DirkKirsch AnjaKreinath Jens1967-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910821242403321Narrative cultures and the aesthetics of religion4125687UNINA
