Religion, Media, and the Marketplace
Lynn Schofield Clark
Religion is infiltrating the arena of consumer culture in increasingly visible ways. We see it in a myriad of forms - in movies, such as Mel Gibson's ""The Passion of the Christ"", on Internet shrines and kitschy Web ""altars"". This title explores this intersection of the secular and the sacred.
Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.; Avail. in cloth. Publisher Marketing: At a time when religious fundamentalism throughout the world is inseparable from political aims, this interdisciplinary look at the mutual influences between religion and the media is essential reading for scholars from a wide variety of disciplines.
