{"product_id":"straying-from-the-straight-path-daan-beekers-9781789207606","title":"Straying from the Straight Path: How Senses of Failure Invigorate Lived Religion","description":"\u003cp\u003e If piety, faith, and conviction constitute one side of the religious coin, then imperfection, uncertainty, and ambivalence constitute the other. Yet, scholars tend to separate these two domains and place experiences of inadequacy in everyday religious life - such as a wavering commitment, religious negligence or weakness in faith - outside the domain of religion 'proper.'\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003eStraying from the Straight Path\u003c\/em\u003e breaks with this tendency by examining how self-perceived failure is, in many cases, part and parcel of religious practice and experience. Responding to the need for comparative approaches in the face of the largely separated fields of the anthropology of Islam and Christianity, this volume gives full attention to moral failure as a constitutive and potentially energizing force in the religious lives of both Muslims and Christians in different parts of the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daan Beekers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789207606\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789207606\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/17\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Daan Beekers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906937377023,"sku":"9781789207606","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1d3f59ee-b7e1-43f6-95c3-a02c901ada6b.jpg?v=1748771825","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/straying-from-the-straight-path-daan-beekers-9781789207606","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
