This volume examines what words are--how they exist--in religious phenomena. Going beyond the common idea that language merely describes states of mind, beliefs, and intentions, the book looks at words in their performative and material specificity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe contributions in the volume develop the insight that our implicit assumptions about what language does guide the way we understand and experience religious phenomena. They also explore the possibility that insights about the particular status of religious utterances may in turn influence the way we think about words in our language.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ernst Van Den Hemel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fordham University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 614\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 7.20w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780823255566\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eErnst van den Hemel \u003c\/strong\u003eis research fellow at the Centre for the Humanities, University Utrecht. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAsja Szafraniec \u003c\/strong\u003eteaches in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Amsterdam.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40239081324659,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":35.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_9dc9e309-5937-450b-a9b3-f8c47eeb46e3.jpg?v=1657114266","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/words-religious-language-matters-9780823255566","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
