In Search of Dreamtime: The Quest for the Origin of Religion (Religion and Postmodernism)
by Tomoko Masuzawa
- Used
- good
- Paperback
Condition: clean copy.
Content: The author observes that the modern study of religion is peculiarly ambivalent toward the question of origin. Today's historians of religion maintain that they have abandoned speculative quests for the origin of religion; at the same time, they allege that concepts of absolute beginnings are fundamental to religion itself. By renouncing the desire for origins that they claim religious peoples embrace, historians can vicariously participate in the forbidden quest - so it seems - without forfeiting the authority of their objectivist position.
224 pages, Notes, index.
