Rituals, it is agreed, play a prominent role in Zoroastrianism, one
of the oldest continuous traditions of mankind. In this book,
scholars from a broad range of disciplines make the first ever
collective effort to address this issue. From a historical and
geographical perspective, texts and contexts studied in these pages
range from antiquity to modernity, all the way from Japan, China,
India, Iran, Europe to California. The essays touch on questions of
theory, ritual texts, change and performances, gender and
professional religion (priesthood/lay-people). The rituals studied
are placed in a broad scope of social and local settings ranging
from the royal court to the needy, from the rural village to the
urban metropolis, from the domestic to the public.
