Sorry for the delay. The trouble is, I went through a non-academic period where I lost quite a bit of my previous knowledge (and library!) on the topic of ritual in the course of worrying about layoffs and the like. I did notice a Graham Harvey reader on the topic out there, but I can't find a content list for the life of me. Thus, it'd be great if someone can provide some suggestions for the benefit of both of us. (Having just finished LANGUAGE OF ANGELS AND DEMONS, I know Chris Lehrich has done some work on examining ritual from the perspective of text, but I'd like to see that fleshed out more than was done in that work.)
