Description

Material Culture and Asian Religions: Text, Image, Object (Routledge Research in Religion, Media and Culture, Volume 4) provides a new perspective on the study of Asian religious histories. For a long time, research in this field has focused heavily on literary evidence and canonical texts written in classical languages. This approach has often shaped dominant narratives in both academic scholarship and popular culture, while leading to the study of religious traditions in isolation from one another. This volume addresses these gaps by looking beyond modern textual editions and electronic databases. By examining the connection between text, image, and object, this work helps researchers move past the limitations of purely literary studies. It offers a way to understand how religious practices and identities are expressed through material means, providing a more complete view of the religious landscape in Asia. This book is an essential resource for students, academics, and museum professionals interested in the intersection of media, culture, and religion.
