From the Inside Flap
PRAISE FOR RELIGION AND POPULAR CULTURE IN AMERICA
“A solid introduction to the dialogue between the disciplines of cultural studies and religion.”—Religious Studies Review
“You have in your hands an indispensable guide to thinking about popular culture. Forbes and Mahan show how our entertainments are not just things we consume but objects that define how we express our political sentiments and social identity. Funny, fresh, and sharp—every essay is a gem.”—Kathryn Lofton, Yale University
“The revised edition of this groundbreaking volume demonstrates how popular culture remains vital to the study of religion and how insights from the practices and narratives of religion in turn illuminate popular culture. A thorough overview for students and researchers alike.”—S. Brent Plate, author of Religion and Film: Cinema and the Re-Creation of the World
