"Communication is an essential part of religion: communication between believers, between religious leaders and followers, between proponents of different faiths, and even practitioners and the deities. The Encyclopedia of Religion, Communication, and Media explores all forms of religious communication worldwide and historically, with a special emphasis on oral and written forms of communication." "The Encyclopedia of Religion, Communication, and Media contains 124 entries contributed and signed by scholars from international universities and institutions, with expertise in the fields of religious studies, communication studies, media studies, theology, journalism, and more." "The Encyclopedia analyzes the dynamics of the relationship between religion, communication and media, exploring an essential aspect of religion that has a great impact on culture, society, and daily life."--Jacket.
