The Routledge Companion to Religion and Popular Culture - Bog

Religion and popular culture is a fast-growing field spanning a range of disciplines. This informative resource offers the first real survey of the field to date, considering key methodological issues. The entries explore religious encounters with popular culture across media, material culture and space, ranging from videogames and social networks to cooking and kitsch, architecture and national monuments. The Companion also examines the representation of different religious traditions within the media and popular culture, mainly in the West but also including Bollywood and other important non-Western pop cultural phenomena.
