Book Description:
|
Something Old, Something New: Contemporary Entanglements of Religion and Secularity offers a fresh perspective on debates surrounding a significant if underappreciated relationship between religious and secular interests. In entanglement, secularity competes with religion, but neither side achieves simple dominance by displacing the other. Instead, Glausser argues, they interact and alter each other in a contentious but oddly intimate relationship.
