Reseña del libro "Religion in English Everyday Life: An Ethnographic Approach (Methodology & History in Anthropology) (en Inglés)"
"Much of the interest and originality of the book inheres in the illuminating and sensitive analysis . . . an important methodological contribution." · Journal of Contemporary Religion "Jenkins is a perspicacious and insightful researcher . . . An original and fascinating read." · World Faith Encounter Starting from an ethnographic appraisal of the place of religious practices, and thereby returning to an approach more recently neglected, this book offers a detailed understanding of English everyday life. Three contemporary case studies - the life of a country church, an annual procession by the churches in a Bristol suburb, a range of linked "spiritualist" beliefs - disclose the complex patterns and compulsion of ordinary lives, including both moral and historical dimensions: the distribution of reputation and conflict, and the continuities of place and identity. At the same time, the approach revises previous accounts of English social life by giving a nuanced description of the construction of local lives in interaction with their wider setting. It demonstrates the creation of local particularity under an outside gaze, showing how actors create and cope with the forces of "modernity." In addition to the original ethnographic descriptions, the book also contributes to the history and theory of the study of complex societies. Timothy Jenkins is a graduate of the Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology, University of Oxford, and of the Faculty of Theology, University of Cambridge. He has undertaken fieldwork in France and England and was ordained a priest in the Church of England in 1986. Since 1992 he has taught at the Faculty of Theology, University of Cambridge, where he is Dean and Fellow of Jesus College.
