An edited collection focusing on the theological history of anthropology. It discusses deeply-held theological assumptions that humans make about the nature of reality and illustrates how these assumptions manifest themselves in society.
MoreLong description:
After years of discussion within the field of anthropology concerning how to properly engage with theology, a growing number of anthropologists now want to engage with theology as a counterpart in ethnographic dialogue. Theologically Engaged Anthropology focuses on the theological history of anthropology, illuminating deeply held theological assumptions that humans make about the nature of reality, and illustrating how these theological assumptions manifest themselves in society. This volume brings together leading anthropologists and theologians to consider what theology can contribute to cultural anthropology and ethnography. It provides anthropologists and theologians with a rationale and framework for using theology in anthropological research.
filled with substantive insights not only into what theologians stand to gain from anthropology, but also -- and especially -- how theology can benefit anthropology, rendering this an important volume for anthropologists and theologians alike.
