Produktinformationen zu „The Theology of Food / Illuminations: Theory & Religion (ePub)“
The links between religion and food have been known for centuries,
and yet we rarely examine or understand the nature of the
relationship between food and spirituality, or food and sin.
Drawing on literature, politics, and philosophy as well as
theology, this book unlocks the role food has played within
religious tradition.
* A fascinating book tracing the centuries-old links between
theology and food, showing religion in a new and intriguing
light
* Draws on examples from different religions: the significance of
the apple in the Christian Bible and the eating of bread as the
body of Christ; the eating and fasting around Ramadan for Muslims;
and how the dietary laws of Judaism are designed to create an
awareness of living in the time and space of the Torah
* Explores ideas from the fields of literature, politics, and
philosophy, as well as theology
* Takes seriously the idea that food matters, and that the many
aspects of eating - table fellowship, culinary
traditions, the aesthetic, ethical and political dimensions of
food - are important and complex, and throw light on
both religion and our relationship to food
