Berghahn Books is pleased to announce the recent publication of ENCOUNTERS OF BODY AND SOUL IN CONTEMPORARY RELIGIOUS PRACTICES, edited by Anna Fedele and Ruy Llera Blanes. This volume pursues the ongoing debates and discusses the importance of the body and how it is perceived in contemporary religious faith. The contributors here present research in novel empirical contexts, the benefits and limits of the old dichotomy are discussed, and new theoretical strategies proposed. __________________________________ Sebastian Schüler Projektleiter Exzellenzcluster Religion und Politik WWU Münster Geiststr. 24 48151 Münster
