| adam_text | ALL THE HUMAN SENSES BECOME ENGAGED IN RITUALIZING SACRED TEXTS. THESE
ESSAYS FOCUS ESPECIALLY
ON RITUALIZING THE ICONIC DIMENSION OF TEXTS THROUGH THE SENSES OF
SIGHT, TOUCH, KISS, AND TASTE,
BOTH DIRECTLY AND IN THE IMAGINATION.
RITUALIZED DISPLAY OF BOOKS ENGAGES THE SENSE OF SIGHT VERY DIFFERENTLY
THAN DOES READING.
TOUCHING GETS ASSOCIATED WITH READING SCRIPTURES, BUT TOUCHING ALSO
ENABLES USING THE SCRIPTURE
AS AN AMULET. EATING AND CONSUMING TEXTS IS A UBIQUITOUS ANALOGY FOR
INTERNALIZING THE CONTENTS
OF TEXTS BY READING AND MEMORIZATION.
THE IDEA OF TEXTUAL CONSUMPTION REFLECTS A WIDESPREAD TENDENCY TO EQUATE
HUMANS AND
WRITTEN TEXTS BY THEIR INTERIORITY AND EXTERIORITY: BOOKS AND PEOPLE
BOTH HAVE MATERIAL BODIES,
YET BOTH SEEM TO CONTAIN IMMATERIAL IDEAS. BOOKS THUS PHYSICALLY
INCARNATE CULTURAL AND RELIGIOUS
VALUES,
DOCTRINES, BELIEFS, AND IDEAS.
THESE ESSAYS BRING THEORIES OF
RITUAL,
AFFECT, MATERIALITY HAPTICS, CODE SWITCHING, TRANSITIVITY
AND INDEXICALITY TO BEAR ON THE TOPIC. THEY INCLUDE RICH ETHNOGRAPHIC
DESCRIPTIONS OF SCRIPTURAL
PRACTICES IN JEWISH,
SIKH,
M USLIM, CHRISTIAN, BUDDHIST AND CONFUCIAN TRADITIONS, AS WELL AS
HISTORICAL ACCOUNTS OF CHANGING PRACTICES IN THE BIBLE AND IN MEDIEVAL
AND MODERN ART.
