{"product_id":"understanding-religious-sacrifice-jeffrey-carter-9780826448804","title":"Understanding Religious Sacrifice","description":"This volume provides a thorough introduction to the major classic and modern writings dealing with religious sacrifice. Collected here are twenty five influential selections, each with a brief introduction addressing the overall framework and assumptions of its author. As they present different theories and examples of sacrifice, these selections also discuss important concepts in religious studies such as the origin of religion, totemism, magic, symbolism, violence, structuralism and ritual performance. Students of comparative religion, ritual studies, the history of religions, the anthropology of religion and theories of religion will particularly value the historical organization and thematic analyses presented in this collection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeffrey Carter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0826448801\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826448804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Continnuum-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.60h x 6.66w x 1.52d","brand":"Jeffrey Carter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120370938111,"sku":"9780826448804","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_96ad5a40-2883-4df6-9633-d379e976c75f.jpg?v=1687413954","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/understanding-religious-sacrifice-jeffrey-carter-9780826448804","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
