Language plays a key role in religion, framing how people describe
spiritual experience and giving structure to religious beliefs and
practices. Bringing together work from a team of world-renowned
scholars, this volume introduces contemporary research on religious
discourse from a variety of theoretical and methodological
perspectives. It introduces methods for analysis of a range of
different kinds of text and talk, including institutional discourse
within organised religions, discourse around spirituality and
spiritual experience within religious communities, media discourse
about the role of religion and spirituality in society,
translations of sacred texts, political discourse, and ritual
language. Engaging and easy-to-read, it is accessible to
researchers across linguistics, religious studies, and other
related disciplines. A comprehensive introduction to all the major
research approaches to religious language, it will become a key
resource in the emerging inter-disciplinary field of language and
religion.
