In a journey ?beyond Babel?, the volume explores how religious and linguistic pluralisms enter into polyphonic relations, how they co-evolve and grow together, and why they clash. This text provides the setting for a dialogue on a rich variety of religious languages and traditions, including Hinduism, Judaism, Islam, Jainism, and Christianity. The chapters explore how these traditions can venture into new interreligious paths, how sacred meanings translate into vernacular speeches, how religious identities and scientific notions interacts, what role emotional expressions play in interfaith encounters, and the impact of Artificial Intelligence on beliefs. The book is authored by esteemed senior scholars, established researchers, and exceptional junior doctorate holders whose expertise spans across religious studies, the history of science, philosophy, fine arts, theology, linguistics, computer science, and legal studies. This volume contributes to interfaith studies and teaching, to sociology and philosophy of religion, and to the history and anthropology of religion and the sacred arts. It is intended to reach students, researchers, instructors, and professionals alike. 410 0$aSophia Studies in Cross-cultural Philosophy of Traditions and Cultures,$x2211-1115 ;$v43 606 $aReligion$xPhilosophy 606 $aReligions 606 $aPhilosophy of Religion 606 $aComparative Religion 615 0$aReligion$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aReligions. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Religion. 615 24$aComparative Religion. 676 $a210.14 700 $aVestrucci$b Andrea$01437951 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910760282803321 996 $aBeyond Babel: Religion and Linguistic Pluralism$94450844 997 $aUNINA
