Reading J. Z. Smith

Interviews & Essay

Herausgeber: Braun, Willi; Mccutcheon, Russell T

Beschreibung

Jonathan Z. Smith (1938-2017) was perhaps the most influential theorist of religion of the last half century. In this book, four interviews and a previously unpublished essay display something of the dynamic, thinking-on-his feet liveliness that Smith brought to questions about the study of religion, his theoretical preferences, and his methods of teaching.
