Religion in English Everyday Life by Timothy Jenkins

Religion in English Everyday Life by Timothy Jenkins

Starting from an ethnographic appraisal of the place of religious practices, and thereby returning to an approach more recently neglected, this book offers a detailed understanding of English everyday life. Three contemporary case studies disclose the complex patterns and compulsion of ordinary lives, including both moral and historical dimensions.

"Much of the interest and originality of the book inheres in the illuminating and sensitive analysis.. an important methodological contribution."  · Journal of Contemporary Religion

"Jenkins is a perspicacious and insightful researcher ... An original and fascinating read."  · World Faith Encounter
