Hindu-Christian Dual Belonging (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Soars, Daniel J.; Pohran, Nadya

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book focuses on dual belonging within Hindu-Christian contexts. Written by experts in a variety of fields, the chapters explore the theological, philosophical, and cultural anthropological debates relating to religious pluralism, religious language, and social identity while addressing the fact that both Hindu and Christian forms of self-understandings have been significantly moulded through their interactions in South Asia and across certain Euro-American horizons. The limits of the definition of dual belonging are tested via case studies, and contributors address the question of whether there is anything distinctive about dual belonging across Christianity and Hinduism specifically.

A timely contribution to the emerging subject of dual religious belonging, this book will be of interest to academics in the fields of Hindu studies and Christian theology, Hindu-Christian comparative theology, religious pluralism, interreligious relations, the sociology and anthropology of religion, and comparative theology and philosophy.

Rezensionen

"This volume is a welcome addition to the growing literature on multiple religious identities, participation, and belonging. It is the first within this body of work to focus broadly on the variety of issues raised specifically by Hindu-Christian belonging."
