Description

Explore the connection between spiritual identity and urban environments in Of Gods, Gifts and Ghosts: Spiritual Places in Urban Spaces. Published by Routledge, this work examines how individuals express their religious identities and diasporic ethnicities within a city setting. Through a combination of sociological studies and photographic essays, Terence Heng maps the rituals, collectives, and events that define Chinese religious practices in Singapore. The text looks at specific elements such as spirit mediums and the Hungry Ghost Festival to understand how these traditions function in a secular nation-state.

It provides a deep look at the ephemeral nature of spiritual practices and their lasting impact on the urban landscape.
