"This book offers a survey of the development of interdisciplinarity in Religious
Studies within academia and offers ways for it to continue to progress in contemporary
universities. It examines the use of the term 'interdisciplinary' in the context of
the academic study of religion and how it shapes the way scholarly work in this field
has developed. The text uses two main elements to discuss Religious Studies as a field.
Firstly, it looks at the history of the development of Religious Studies in academia,
as seen through an interdisciplinary critique of the university as an epistemological
project. It then uses the same interdisciplinary critique to develop a foundation
for a 21st century hermeneutic. One which uses the classical concepts reprised by
that interdisciplinary critique and retools the field for the 21st century. Setting
out both the objects of Religious Studies as a subject and the techniques used to
employ the study of those objects, this book offers an invaluable perspective on the
progress of the field. It will, therefore, be of great use to scholars of research
methods within Religious Studies"
