Engaging with contemporary scholarship in the field, Tremlett argues that the study of religions has always involved the conflation of facts and values and indeed has been structured in advance by the value-saturated discourse on disenchanted modernity. He argues that phenomenological and post-modern approaches to religions lack both theoretical and methodological coherence, and in their stead proposes a Marxist approach to religions that is at once empirical and informed by values pertaining to social justice, freedom and autonomy."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aContinuum advances in religious studies. 606 $aCritical theory 606 $aPhenomenology 606 $aReductionism 606 $aReligion$xMethodology 606 $2Religion: general 615 0$aCritical theory. 615 0$aPhenomenology. 615 0$aReductionism. 615 0$aReligion$xMethodology. 676 $a210.1 700 $aTremlett$b Paul-Franc?ois$0908408 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807091603321 996 $aReligion and the discourse on modernity$94116281 997 $aUNINA
