Abrahamic Religions: On the Uses and Abuses of History
Hughes, Aaron W. (Gordon and Gretchen Gross Professor of History, Gordon and Gretchen Gross Professor of History, SUNY Buffalo)
Aaron Hughes examines the creation and dissemination of ''Abrahamic religions.'' Part genealogical and part analytical, his study seeks to raise and answer questions about the appropriateness and usefulness of employing these religions as a vehicle for understanding and classifying data. This monograph can be taken as a case study that examines the construction of categories within the academic study of religion, showing how the categories we employ can become morean impediment than an expedient to understanding.
