Combining a wide range of disciplinary approaches, methods and theories, the volume assembles over 50 contributions that explore and compare processes of religious individualisation in different religious environments and historical periods, in particular in Asia, the Mediterranean, and Europe from antiquity to the recent past. Contrary to standard theories of modernisation, which tend to regard religious individualisation as a specifically modern or early modern as well as an essentially Western or Christian phenomenon, the chapters reveal processes of religious individualisation in a large variety of non-Western and pre-modern scenarios. Furthermore, the volume challenges prevalent views that regard religions primarily as collective phenomena and provides nuanced perspectives on the appropriation of religious agency, the pluralisation of religious options, dynamics of de-traditionalisation and privatisation, the development of elaborated notions of the self, the facilitation of religious deviance, and on the notion of dividuality. 606 $aReligion & beliefs$2bicssc 606 $aReligion: general$2bicssc 606 $aHistory of religion$2bicssc 606 $aSociology$2bicssc 608 $aHistory.$2fast 610 $aIndividualisation. 610 $areligious experience. 610 $aself. 610 $atheory of religion. 615 7$aReligion & beliefs 615 7$aReligion: general 615 7$aHistory of religion 615 7$aSociology 676 $a204.4 686 $aBE 3350$2rvk 700 $aFuchs$b Martin$4edt$065507 702 $aFuchs$b Martin, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aLinkenbach$b Antje, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMulsow$b Martin, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aOtto$b Bernd-Christian, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aParson$b Rahul Bjørn, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRüpke$b Jörg, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 712 02$aDeutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG)$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996328047703316 996 $aReligious Individualisation$93396273 997 $aUNISA
