This collection of essays?which includes three previously unpublished chapters?identifies the manner in which old problems (like the presumption that our object of study is a special, deeply meaningful case) yet remain in the field. But amidst the critique there are a variety of practical suggestions for how the science of religion can become methodologically even-handed and self-reflexive?the markings of a historically rigorous exercise. Each chapter is introduced and contextualized by a newly written, substantive introduction. 410 0$aSupplements to Method & Theory in the Study of Religion$v2. 606 $aReligion$xMethodology 606 $aReligion$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aReligion$xMethodology. 615 0$aReligion$xStudy and teaching. 676 $a200 700 $aMcCutcheon$b Russell T.$f1961-$0873688 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808928703321 996 $aA modest proposal on method$94101604 997 $aUNINA
