Building from a range of essays representing multiple fields of
expertise and traversing multiple religious traditions, this
important text provides analytic rigor to a question now pressing
the academic study of religion: what is the relationship between
the material and the digital? Its chapters address a range of
processes of mediation between the digital and the material from a
variety of perspectives and sub-disciplines within the field of
religion in order to theorize the implications of these two turns
in scholarship, offer case studies in methodology, and reflect on
various tools and processes. Authors attend to religious practices
and the internet, digital archives of religion, decolonization,
embodiment, digitization of religious artefacts and objects, and
the ways in which varied relationships between the digital and the
material shape religious life. Collectively, the volume
demonstrates opportunities and challenges at the intersection of
digital humanities and material religion. Rather than defining the
bounds of a new field of inquiry, the essays make a compelling
case, collectively and on their own, for the interpretive scrutiny
required of the humanities in the digital age.
