Product Information
The comparative method is an integral part of religious studies. All the technical terms that scholars of religion use on a daily basis, such as ritual, hagiography, shrine, authority, fundamentalism, hybridity, and, of course, religion, are comparative terms. Yet comparison has been subject to criticism, including postcolonialist and postmodernist critiques. Older approaches are said to have used comparison primarily to confirm preconceptions about religion. More recently, comparison has been criticized as an act of abstraction that does injustice to the particular, neglects differences, and establishes a mostly Western power of definition over the rest of the world.In this book, Oliver Freiberger takes a closer look at how comparison works. Revisiting critical debates and examining reflections in other disciplines, including comparative history, sociology, comparative theology, and anthropology, Freiberger proposes a model of comparison that is based on a thorough epistemological analysis and that takes both the scholar's situatedness and his or her agency seriously. Examining numerous examples of comparative studies, Considering Comparison develops a methodological framework for conducting and evaluating such studies. Freiberger suggests a comparative approach - which he calls discourse comparison - that confronts the omnipresent risks of decontextualization, essentialization, and universalization.This book makes a case for comparison, arguing that it is indispensable for a deeper analytical understanding of what we call religion. The book is intended to enrich the practice of both aspiring and seasoned comparativists, stimulate much-needed further discussions about comparative methodology, and encourage more scholars to produce responsible comparative studies.

Reviews
"The clarity with which Freiberger articulates his understanding of all the different aspects of the method is truly impressive. This clarity exposes the reasons why past comparative projects have some-times failed, but also the reasons why we should not be put off the compara-tive method as a whole. Students, including undergraduates, will be able to follow the reflections, and for scholars engaged inDLor considering engaging inDLcomparative research it issomething of a handbook, and provides tools for explaining and justifying our approach." -- Naomi Appleton, Religions of South Asia"Freiberger provides a broad panorama of the debates on comparison and of comparative work in the study of religion\s...his prose is clear and readable." -- Michael Strausberg, University of Bergen, Norway, Religion"...[T]he book is an essential read for anyone looking for an updated and lucid examination of what the stakes of comparison in the study of religion are, and of course for those about to undertake a comparative project themselves." -- Philippe Bornet, University of Lausanne, Numen"Freiberger offers a robust and detailed means of conducting inquiry in comparative religion." -- Timothy Knepper, Drake University, Journal of the American Academy of Religion, "The clarity with which Freiberger articulates his understanding of all the different aspects of the method is truly impressive.

Was scared to see all the negative reviews, but the book came in great condition, and is new as described. A very rare book to find for such an affordable rate. You would think it’s too good to be true, but this seller came through! arrived in about 2 weeks.
