In Asian and Asian diaspora communities, diverse cultural tropes, beliefs, and artifacts were mobilized to make sense of Covid, including a repertoire of gods and demons like Coronasur, the virus depicted with the horns and fangs of a traditional Hindu demon. Various kinds of knowledge were invoked: theologies, indigenous medicines, and biomedical narratives, as well as ethical values and nationalist sentiments. CoronAsur: Asian Religions in the Covidian Age follows the documentation and analysis of the abrupt societal shifts triggered by the pandemic to understand current and future pandemic times, while revealing further avenues for research on religion that have opened up in the Covidian age. Developed in tandem with the research blog CoronAsur: Religion and COVID-19, this volume is a "phygital" publication, a work grounded in empirical roots as well as digitally born communication. It comprises thirty-eight essays that examine Asian religious communities-Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, Daoist, and Christian as well as popular/folk and new religious movements, or NRMs-in terms of the changes brought on by and the ritual responses to the Covid pandemic.

Studying religious narratives, practices, and changes in the Covidian age adds to our understanding of not only the specific groups in which they are situated, but also the coronavirus itself, its disputed etiologies and culturally contextualized exegeses. CoronAsur offers a comprehensive and timely discussion of Covidian transformations in religious communities' engagements with media, spaces, and moral and political economies, documenting how religious practices and discourses have co-produced the meanings of the pandemic.COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-2023AsiaReligious aspectsCOVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-2023Religious aspectsasia epidemic.asia pandemic.coronavirus.covid-19 asia.public health coronavirus.religion coronavirus.religion covid-19.religion medicine.religion public health.COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-2023Religious aspects.COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-2023Religious aspects.201/.76219624144Lang Natalie; Sánchez, Louie Jon A.; Othman, Muhammad Lutfi Bin; Lorea, Carola E.; Chew, Lim Peng; Shiozaki, Yuki; Deliana, N1736770Lorea Carola E.,1440075Aarshe Fatema, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbʻĀrif Yāsmīnctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbArumugam Indiractbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBagaria Swayam, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBanerjee Rakactbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBhattacharjee Malinictbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBhuiyan Md.
