How does religion relate to bodies and sexualities? Many people would answer, simply, "through repression," but the relationship is much more complicated than that. While many religions draw boundaries between what they consider to be appropriate and inappropriate use of the human body, especially in the realm of sexuality, the same religions often celebrate human sexuality and even expect sexual partners to provide each other with sexual pleasure. Celibacy, too, is more than just repression, and sometimes it is even seen as providing the practitioner with great spiritual power; in other settings, the sex act itself is understood to provide this power. Religion, the Body, and Sexuality offers students and general readers a sophisticated and accessible exploration of the connections between religion, sexuality, and the body, through case studies and overviews in the following thematic chapters: Celibacy Regulation Controversy Violence Innovation Instrumentalization Ecstasy Each chapter includes suggestions for further reading, questions for further thought, and a list of relevant media resources. This engaging book is an excellent addition to introductory courses on religion or sexuality and is a much-needed new volume for advanced courses on the intersections of these areas of human experience.

"Confucianism and Sacred Space uses the site of the Confucius temple to explore Confucianism both as one of China's "three religions" (with Buddhism and Daoism) and as a cultural phenomenon, from the imperial era and to its secular garb under the Communists. This translation draws on Chin-shing Huang's two monographs and numerous published articles to provide a holistic picture of his decades-long research into Confucius temples. An introduction gives a historical overview and pulls the pieces together"--

Über uns der Ideenhimmel, in uns das Bewusstsein und dazwischen: die Religion als Bestandteil der soziokulturellen Wirklichkeit. Volkhard Krech entfaltet in seinem soziologischen Grundriss der religiösen Evolution das Verständnis von Religion als Kommunikation, die zwischen den Menschen entsteht und stattfindet. In seiner Analyse zur Ausdifferenzierung des Religiösen, die Bezug auf die Evolutionstheorie, Systemtheorie und eine semiotisch informierte Kommunikationstheorie nimmt, bewegt er sich in der Zirkularität von Gegenwart und Geschichte. Dabei macht er Religion als Sinnform zur Bearbeitung unbestimmbarer Kontingenz begreifbar. Besprochen in: https://idw-online.de, 16.03.2021 https://www.wernerschell.de, 4 (2021)

Judith Butler und Michel Foucault haben der katholischen Theologie wesentliche Einsichten zu vermitteln, denn sie betonen - mit je eigener Schwerpunktsetzung - die Notwendigkeit einer genauen Machtanalyse. Dabei wird dem Gender und damit dem Körper, insbesondere auch in der sprachlosen Performativität, ein angemessener Raum gegeben. So kann Freiheit als Grundlage kreativen und kritischen menschlichen Handelns gedacht und für die Theologie umgesetzt werden. Die Problematiken dieser Themen innerhalb des katholischen Diskursraumes sind einerseits aktuell, andererseits haben sie eine Entstehungs- wie Rezeptionsgeschichte. Die Theologin und Dogmatikerin Gunda Werner erkundet, wie die Genderdiskurse zur Prägung des Subjektes Judith Butlers und Michel Foucaults Diskurskonzept der Parrhesia, des Wahrsprechens, für eine Theologie der Freiheit fruchtbar gemacht werden können. In mehreren Casestudies zeigt sie, wie die Trias Freiheit - Gender (Körper) - Macht (Kritik) die Kategorien und Strukturelemente einer Theologie der Freiheit bilden kann.
