This book studies religion through the eyes of some of its most influential, exemplary, and sometimes controversial people. Historically organized and philosophically nuanced, each chapter locates a thinker in their material context to elucidate the impact of their ideas. Figures covered include Philo Judaeus, Adi Shankara, Abu Hamid al-Ghazali, Julian of Norwich, and W.E.B. Du Bois. Empathizing with their different viewpoints aims to build the capacities necessary to live tolerantly in religiously diverse democracies today. It draws students into perennial debates that evoke the habits of mind capable of engaging today's multi-religious societies, and provides options for further reading at the end of each chapter.
Thought provoking and wide-ranging, this book will be essential reading for students and scholars of world religions, comparative religion, and the history and philosophy of religion.
