Religion • Anthropology
Religion is sometimes associated with the ludic, the liminal, and the playful, but this mar-
velous volume explores the much-less discussed theme of enjoyment. In some very vivid
chapters, the contributors take us across the world and across religions, greatly extending
our analytical vocabulary by demonstrating the numerous ways in which we need to take the
enjoyment of religion much more seriously. —Simon Coleman, University of Toronto
It s delightful to find a scholarly book that puts the fun back into religion. With its coverage
of different religious traditions, and many perspectives, this fascinating collection enables the
reader to draw interesting broader conclusions about how and why some forms of religion
find it easier to embrace joy and sensuality than others.
—Linda Woodhead, Lancaster University
Now that emotions in general are increasingly acknowledged as important for religious
studies, Enjoying Religion pinpoints enjoyment in particular as a worthwhile flow of devotees
pleasure and as a theoretical topic worthy of scholarly analysis. A mixture of academic dis-
ciplines are combined here to cover traditional and niche-novelty forms of meaning-making
events to stimulate future studies of human pleasure in ritual play.
—Douglas J. Davies, Durham University
Enjoying religion seems to be a contradiction because religion is generally perceived as
a serious or even suppressive phenomenon. This volume is the first to study the increase
of enjoying religion systematically by presenting eleven new case studies, occurring on four
continents. This volume concludes that in our late modern secular societies, the enjoyment
of religion or of its loose elements is growing. In particular, when scholars concentrate on
lived religion of ordinary people, cheerful experiences appear to prevail. Many people use
pleasant (elements of) religion to add meaning to their lives, to find spiritual fulfillment or a
way to salvation, and to experience belonging to a larger unity. At the same time, diverse
cultural dynamics of late modern society such as popular culture, commercialization, re-
enchantment, and feminization influence this trend of enjoying religion. In spite of seculariza-
tion, playing with religion appears to be attractive.
