American Examples: New Conversations about Religion, Volume Four, continues the annual anthology series produced by the American Examples workshop at the University of Alabama’s Department of Religious Studies. The goal of American Examples is to examine examples of “something someone called religious, somewhere someone called America” by asking theoretical questions that exceed the boundaries of American religion or American religious history. This volume features seven essays exploring examples ranging from American Muslim headwear to online pickup artists to the connections between Dutch immigrants and Japanese students. This collection offers valuable insights for scholars and students within and beyond the field of American religious history.

Recenzii
“This is not just a collection considering the many possible forms of the categories ‘American’ and ‘religion’; in a much larger sense, this volume is a guidebook for how scholars across the disciplines can begin to consider the wide-ranging significance of the politics of classification.”

Descriere
American Examples, Volume 4 continues the acclaimed anthology series that reimagines the study of religion in America through bold, interdisciplinary case studies. Edited by Candace Lukasik and colleagues, this volume explores topics ranging from Muslim American fashion and online seduction advice to interreligious activism and global missionary networks. By asking provocative questions about identity, empire, and classification, the contributors challenge conventional boundaries and offer fresh insights for scholars across religious studies, cultural theory, and American history.
