Studying religion in college or university? This book shows you how
to perform well on your course tests and examinations, write
successful papers, and participate meaningfully in class
discussions. You'll learn new skills and also enhance existing
ones, which you can put into practice with in-text exercises and
assignments. Written by two award-winning instructors, this book
identifies the close reading of texts, material culture, and
religious actions as the fundamental skill for the study of
religion at undergraduate level. It shows how critical analytical
thinking about religious actions and ideas is founded on careful,
patient, yet creative "reading" of religious stories, rituals,
objects, and spaces. The book leads you through the description,
analysis, and interpretation of examples from multiple historical
periods, cultures, and religious traditions, including primary
source material such as Matthew 6:9-13 (the Lord's Prayer), the
Gohonzon scroll of the Japanese new religion Soka Gakkai, and the
pilgrimage to Mecca (hajj). It provides you with typical
assignments you will encounter in your studies, showing you how you
might approach tasks such as reflective, interpretive or summary
essays. Visit
