Product details
"The Social Scientific Study of Exorcism in Christianity" offers a comprehensive academic analysis of exorcism within Christianity. The book not only examines the individual crisis and drama of a person struggling against demonic possession but also highlights the far-reaching societal implications associated with these experiences. Through case studies from various geographical regions, including Europe, North and South America, and Oceania, it addresses the growing significance of the exorcism rite in both traditional Christian religions and less structured forms within neo-Pentecostal movements. The contributions analyze the interactions between religion, magic, and science, presenting new, groundbreaking data on the topic of exorcism. The book argues that exorcism as a ritual is capable of restoring balance and order, occurring in a context where religious groups position themselves against other faiths within a consumer culture. It is aimed at researchers in this field and provides valuable insights into the dynamics of faith and society.
