Practical theology has outgrown its traditional pastoral paradigm. The articles in this handbook recognize that faith, spirituality, and lived religion, within and beyond institutional communities, refer to realms of cultures, ritual practices, and symbolic orders, whose boundaries are not clearly defined and whose contents are shifting. The International Handbook of Practical Theology offers insightful transcultural conceptions of religion and religious matters gathered from various cultures and traditions of faith. The first section presents ‘concepts of religion’. Chapters have to do with considerations of the conceptualizing of religion in the fields of ‘anthropology’, ‘community’, ‘family’, ‘institution’, ‘law’, ‘media’, and ‘politics’ among others. The second section is dedicated to case studies of ‘religious practices’ from the perspective of their actors. The third section presents major theoretical discourses that explore the globally significant diversity and multiplicity of religion. Altogether, sixty-one authors from different parts of the world encourage a rethinking of religious practice in an expanded, transcultural, globalized, and postcolonial world.

An kaum einem anderen Ort waren im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert so viele verschiedene katholische Missionsorden tätig wie in Isfahan, der Hauptstadt des Safavidenreiches. Die Studie untersucht die sozialen Rollen, welche die europäischen Missionare in dieser multikulturellen Metropole spielten. Angezogen von der Hoffnung auf die Konversion des Schahs, betätigten sie sich auch als Diplomaten katholischer Herrscher, Gastgeber protestantischer Kaufleute und Heiler von Armeniern und Muslimen. Solche Nischentätigkeiten sicherten den Geistlichen soziale Akzeptanz vor Ort und ökonomische Unabhängigkeit von Rom. Die Flexibilität, die sie im Umgang mit kultureller Diversität bewiesen, ist ein Grundmerkmal missionarischer Tätigkeit im entstehenden globalen Katholizismus.

The conduct of divine service was only one item on the agenda of the nineteenth-century clergyman. He might have to sit on the magistrates' bench, or concern himself with business as a farmer or landowner, or attend a meeting of the Poor Law guardians. He would, in all probability, be closely involved with the day-to-day running of the local school, and he would almost certainly be the principle administrator of the parochial charities. While some of these roles were clearly predestined to bring him into conflict with certain members of his flock, others seem ostensibly designed to operate in their interests. None, however, seem to have earned him much in the way of devotion and respect: instead, each of them at one time or another attracted the direct hostility of parishioners, most particularly those attached to dissenting and/or radical groups.
This book is a detailed exploration of the relationship between Anglican clergymen and the inhabitants of rural parishes in the nineteenth century. Taking Norfolk as a focus, the author examines the many and profound ways in which the Victorian Church affected the daily lives and political destinies of local communities.
