Book Description
The history of the concept of “religion” in Western tradition has intrigued scholars for years. This important collection of eighteen essays brings further light to the ongoing debate. Three of the invited participants, W.C. Smith, M. Despland and E. Feil, has each previously written impressive books treating this subject; the last two acknowledged the impact and continuing influence of Smith’s work, The Meaning and End of Religion. An introduction and a recapitulation of Smith’s contribution as a scholar set the stage for a retrospective look at the published literature. Contributors then examine the transformation of words (the classical religio to the modern religion), particularities of religion in nineteenth-century France, Troeltsch’s concept of religion, the study of religion from an Asian point of view and the categorization of “World Religions.” The concluding essays elaborate contemporary anthropological, cross-disciplinary, semiological, deconstructive and psychoanalytical methodological approaches to the concept and study of “religion.” Exploring critically different aspects of the concept and study of religion, these provocative essays typically reflect the methodological pluralism currently existing in the field of Religious Studies. Of interest to scholars and students alike, this collection also contains a complete bibliography of W.C. Smith’s publications.

Book Description
Cet essai découle de l'" inquiétude de l'histoire ", d'une pratique et d'une interrogation sur cette discipline. L'histoire religieuse chrétienne est d'abord théologie de l'histoire, histoire du dessein providentiel de Dieu sur l'humanité, avant de se séculariser en histoire critique de la composante religieuse du passé humain, dont l'évolution est parallèle à celle de la société au milieu de laquelle elle se déroule. On passe ainsi de l'histoire chrétienne à l'histoire du christianisme. C'est en son sein qu'a été mise au point la méthode historique telle qu'elle est toujours pratiquée et la critique se situe au cœur même de sa problématique, prenant des couleurs de crise quand elle s'applique à l'une de ses sources privilégiée : la Bible. Aujourd'hui pleinement reconnue, l'histoire religieuse est confrontée à un double défi : il lui faut confirmer son autonomie par rapport aux Eglises et continuer à se développer dans une société de plus en plus marquée par l'inculture religieuse.
