Beschreibung

Religion Extended contributes to discussions of aspects of religion that go beyond the epistemology of belief, incorporating other states such as understanding, emotion, knowledge of persons, knowledge-how, as well as practice. The author looks to bridge the gap in the study of religion between research of religious beliefs, on the one hand, and research of religious practices, on the other. She reconsiders key methodological concepts that traditional philosophy of religion and neighbouring disciplines (e.g. cognitive science of religion, psychology of religion, and theology) take for granted, such as "religious belief" and "religious faith". The book offers a compelling and provocative reframing of these notions by drawing on cutting-edge developments in cognitive science, as well as insights from an Orthodox Christian perspective, which shed light on religion in important ways that tend to be neglected. Presenting a challenge to the received conceptual framework, this innovative and thought-provoking volume will advance discussions and open new areas of research.
