Making Promises: Oaths, Treaties, and Covenants in Multi-jurisdictional and Multi-religious Societies
How should we understand promises as public, private, or political commitments? What are the conditions for promise-making in religiously diverse societies with competing jurisdictions and sovereignties? Making Promises addresses how promises are made meaningful not only through law, but also through appeals to transcendent powers across diverse traditions. Each contribution in this volume takes a closer look at specific kinds of promises: oaths,…

Culture and Religion: Remarks on an Indeterminate Relationship
Religion is often viewed as a subset of 'culture', that is, the two terms are often used interchangeably. At the same time, it is possible to view religion and culture as clearly distinct, perhaps even opposed to each other. This article ponders the ways in which what counts as religion in the present day is intertwined with a concept of culture. Each has an essentialist and postmodern variant, and how they are related, whether conflated or separ…

This issue of Ethnologia Europaea presents an exciting and timely themed section on "Brexit Matters" which discusses the departure of the UK from the EU in a comparative mode. Brexit "matters" in many ways, as the contributions to this section show by considering from an ethnographic perspective previous "exits" or disintegration processes in the ongoing history of European ruptures, thereby contextualizing and historicizing current developments …

Secular Bodies, Affects and Emotions: European Configurations
Taking its cue from the study of ‘lived religion’, Secular Bodies, Affects and Emotions shows how the idea of a secular public is equally marked by a display and cultivation of affect and emotions. Whereas it is widely agreed that religion is often saturated by emotion, the secular is usually treated as a neutral background serving as the domain of public, rational deliberation. This book demonstrates that secularity and secularism are also uphel…

Emotional Lexicons: Continuity and Change in the Vocabulary of Feeling 1700-2000
Emotions are as old as humankind. But what do we know about them and what importance do we assign to them? 'Emotional Lexicons' is a cultural history of terms of emotion found in German, French, and English language encyclopaedias since the late 17th century
Topographies of Emotion
This chapter charts the way emotion terminology in the German language is intertwined with changing conceptions of the soul or mind and its interiority. A more lively exchange between 'inner' (mental) and 'outer' (bodily) parts of the person were envisioned in the definitions prior to 1800 than in encyclopedias of the nineteenth century, when Kantian concepts became dominant. In the Biedermeier period, when the privacy of the home became the roma…
An Author Meets Her Critics
In the fall of 2011, I was appointed to the Chair of Religious Studies in the Department of Religious Studies and Theology in the Faculty of Humanities. As I soon realized, my appointment occurred amid major transitions regarding the institutionalization of the study of religion at Utrecht University. This is part of a broader trend of renegotiating the space between 'theology' and 'religious studies'. This trend echoes a wider process of 'unchur…

What she looks like: On the Recognition and Iconization of the Virgin Mary at Apparition Sites in the Twentieth Century
Knowledge about Mary's appearance, which shapes apparition experiences, is transmitted primarily via well-known images, which themselves are increasingly representations of visions. Though there has been increased homogenization of images of Mary in the twentieth century resulting from template distribution and the way the psychology of recognition works, Mary is still consistently made specific to a place, to carry uniquely identifiable features…

Are Emotions a Kind of Practice (And Is That What Makes Them Have a History)? A Bourdieuian Approach to Understanding Emotion
The term "emotional practices" is gaining currency in the historical study of emotions. This essay discusses the theoretical and methodological implications of this concept. A definition of emotion informed by practice theory promises to bridge persistent dichotomies with which historians of emotion grapple, such as body and mind, structure and agency, as well as expression and experience. Practice theory emphasizes the importance of habituation …

Doing Anthropology in Wartime and War Zones: World War I and the Cultural Sciences in Europe
World War I marks a well-known turning point in anthropology, and this volume is the first to examine the variety of forms it took in Europe. Distinct national traditions emerged and institutes were founded, partly due to collaborations with the military. Researchers in the cultural sciences used war zones to gain access to »informants«: prisoner-of-war and refugee camps, occupied territories, even the front lines. Anthropologists tailored their …
