Postmodern theorist Michel Foucault is best known for his work on
"power/ knowledge," and on the regulation of sexuality in modern
society. Yet throughout his life, Foucault was continually
concerned with Christianity, other spiritual movements and
religious traditions, and the death of God, and these themes and
materials scattered are throughout his many writings. "Religion and
Culture" collects for the first time this important thinker's work
on religion, religious experience, and society. Here are classic
essays such as "The Battle for" "Chastity," alongside those that
have been less widely read in English or in French. Selections are
arranged in three groupings: Madness, Religion and the Avant-Garde;
Religions, Politics and the East; and Christianity, Sexuality and
the Self: Fragments of an Unpublished Volume. Ranging from
Foucault's earliest studies of madness to "Confessions of the
Flesh," the unpublished fourth volume of his "History of
Sexuality," his final thoughts on early Christianity, Religion and
Culture makes Foucault's work an indispensable part of contemporary
religious thought, while also making an important link between
religious studies and cultural studies.
