Description
What do stories reveal about how humans imagine - and reimagine - the sacred? The contributors to this second volume examine religious, spiritual, and alternative belief systems across linear media, including streaming series, films, anime, novels, and music. Their essays range from culturally grounded practices to speculative visions of spirituality, as well as depictions of witchcraft, sermons, and prayer. Together, they show how storytelling becomes a space in which belief is negotiated and transformed across time, space, and imagined worlds.
