In this study of the contemporary North American movement known as the Catholic Charismatic Renewal, Thomas Csordas investigates the healing practices of a modern religious movement to provide a rich cultural analysis of the healing experience. This is not only a book about healing, however, but also one about the nature of self and self- transformation. Blending ethnographic data and detailed case studies, Csordas examines processes of sensory imagery, performative utterance, orientation, and embodiment. His book forms the basis for a rapprochement between phenomenology and semiotics in culture theory that will interest anthropologists, philosophers, psychologists, physicians, and students of comparative religion and healing. 606 $aSpiritual healing 606 $aPentecostalism$xCatholic Church 606 $aPentecostalism$zNew England 606 $aSelf 606 $aIdentification (Religion) 607 $aNew England$xChurch history 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSpiritual healing. 615 0$aPentecostalism$xCatholic Church. 615 0$aPentecostalism 615 0$aSelf. 615 0$aIdentification (Religion) 676 $a234.131 700 $aCsordas$b Thomas J$01050901 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455351603321 996 $aThe sacred self$92481031 997 $aUNINA
