  4. Religion, Culture, and the Monstrous

    Religion, Culture, and the Monstrous

    Of Gods and Monsters

    This is a collection I’ve been waiting on for years. The sacred and the profane have frequently created a unnatural union in our monsters. Scholars of a variety of disciplines have tried to make sense of where these lines meet. This volume, and the incredible collection of scholars found in it, moves beyond some of the iconic studies in the field, changing much of that we think we know about monsters, religion, the sense of the holy, and how all of these intersect in our personal and collective experience. New insights pop on every page and prepare to have older theories autopsied and buried. This book combined academic rigor with a profound sense of the dangerous cultural moment in which it appears, this book will make scholars and monster fans alike rethink what those bumps in the night really mean.
