Brossura. Condizione: new. Milano, 2025; br., pp. 320, cm 19,5x26. Questo volume costituisce un'introduzione allo studio antropologico delle religioni che alterna casi etnografici, riflessioni metodologiche, storia della disciplina e i più recenti dibattiti teorici, con l'obiettivo di offrire una panoramica complessiva della materia, che possa anche essere di stimolo per ulteriori percorsi di approfondimento. La prima parte del volume, "Strumenti concettuali per lo studio antropologico delle religioni", presenta gli strumenti di base della disciplina, definendo in modo critico concetti quali quello di visione del mondo, simbolo, rito, solo per citarne alcuni, attraverso lo studio dei casi etnografici e seguendo le prospettive delle antropologhe e degli antropologi principali che hanno trattato questi temi. La seconda parte, "Intersezioni tematiche", è composta da schede di approfondimento affidate a specialiste e specialisti della tematica trattata e dedicate ad argomenti rilevanti nel dibattito contemporaneo; le schede forniscono una prospettiva antropologica prevalentemente focalizzata sulla pratica dei processi religiosi, sempre in dialogo con i principali approcci e dibattiti contemporanei sul tema. Il volume, frutto del lavoro congiunto dei tre autori e di quello delle collaboratrici e dei collaboratori, intende fornire una visione che sia il più possibile plurale e aperta alla riflessione e alla crescita degli studi in materia di antropologia delle religioni.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Religion has become deeply involved in HIV/AIDS treatment, care and prevention, and is substantially influencing attitudes and behaviour in the domains of sexuality, relationships and the body. At the same time, AIDS as a disease, as a field of biomedicine, and as a realm of international aid interventions is heavily affecting socio-religious formations and developments in Africa. Religion and AIDS are transforming African public and private domains together.Yet, scant attention is paid to the ways in which this intertwined engagement between the domains of religion and the domains of AIDS prevention, care, and treatment in African societies become increasingly linked to an outside world. This book seeks to address the question why so much of the transnational religious engagement with the disease has seemed to serve a conservative agenda. It is unique in drawing attention to the transnationalisation of religion and AIDS in Africa. The disciplinary scope for studying this phenomenon is wide-ranging as it speaks to anthropological, sociological, developmental, historical, and religious studies, and global health perspectives on these issues.Introducing concepts from the study of transnationalism into the study of religion and AIDS and their mutual intertwinement, this book offers the various fields which explore how religious ideologies and moralities have been shaping the experience of AIDS in Africa a new set of conceptual tools for analysis.The multi-disciplinary, empirical chapters from a wide range of localities shows how African public domains are being shaped by forces that are transnational, steered by forceful religious and moral agendas, and often have substantial international resources behind them. These are, so the authors argue, the strings attached to the present-day transnational, religious involvement with AIDS in Africa.…
