The Routledge Companion to Religion and Film brings together a lively, experienced, and diverse team of contributors to introduce students to the key topics in religion and film, and to investigate the ways in which the exciting subject of religion and film is developing for more experienced scholars. This second edition includes 17 new contributors and 10 new topics, including those that deal with the ways in which film relates to Native American Religions, African Religions, Chinese Religions, Atheism, Gender, and Race. The Companion:
Considers film production and technique, marketing, distribution, and audience reception as stages that affect how we understand the interaction of religion and film
Examines films from around the world and the ways in which they reflect diverse cultures and religions
Utilizes multiple methodologies to explore religion and film
Includes study of how online streaming has changed both the content and the distribution of films
Analyzes religious themes in films such as Sacrifice, Redemption, Apocalypse, and Christ Figures
Includes consideration of films as varied as The Passion of the Christ, Midsommar, and Malcolm X.
This thoroughly-updated second edition provides a cutting-edge and accessible resource to this emerging field. The Routledge Companion to Religion and Film continues to be an indispensable guide to religion and film for students of Religion, Film Studies, and beyond.
John C. Lyden is Professor and Chair of the Religious Studies Department at the University of Nebraska Omaha, USA.
