William E. Arnal is Professor in the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Regina.
Description
Placing Willi Braun’s work in a longstanding intellectual tradition that extends back at least to Ludwig Feuerbach, William E. Arnal offers concluding thoughts on how this tradition can assist scholars to resist the reifying tendencies that continue to characterize not just the study of early Christianity but also the academic study of religion as a whole.
