The past few decades have seen growing interest in the study of the body. However, the increasing number of exciting and influential publications has primarily, if not exclusively, focused on the body in Western cultures. The various works produced by Asian scholars remain largely unknown to Western academic debates even though Asia is home to a host of rich body cultures and religions. The peoples of Asia have experienced colonization, decolonization, and now globalization, all of which make the 'body in Asia' a rewarding field of research. This unique volume brings together a number of scholars who work on East, Southeast and South Asia and presents original and cutting edge research on the body in various Asian cultures.

This book provides a comprehensive examination of the study of religions in Sweden, from the early twentieth century to the present and shows how the intersection of national and social forces shape the study of religion in specific countries and contexts. It traces the establishment of the study of religions as an integrated part of Higher Education in Sweden and it critically examines the development of the most significant disciplines, themes and questions that form Religious Studies in Sweden. Demonstrating the interconnection between nationality and the formation of the academic study of religion, the book explores how Sweden is often described as the most secularised country in the world, yet the study of religions in Sweden has a long, rich, and diverse history. The book emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of the study of religions, and bring together the voices of 30 scholars.

How do women express individual agency when engaging in seemingly prescribed or approved practices such as religious fasting? How are sectarian identities played out in the performance of food piety? What do food practices tell us about how women negotiate changes in family relationships? This collection offers a variety of distinct perspectives on these questions. Organized thematically, areas explored include the subordination of women, the nature of resistance, boundary making and the construction of identity and community. Methodologically, the essays use imaginative reconstructions of women's experiences, particularly where the only accounts available are written by men. The essays focus on Hindus and Muslims in South Asia, Sri Lankan Buddhist women and South Asians in the diaspora in the US and UK. Pioneering new research into food and gender roles in South Asia, this will be of use to students of food studies, sociology, anthropology and cultural studies.

Buku ini menyimpulkan semakin mampu berintegrasi dengan kearifan lokal proses Islamisasi Jawa semakin efektif diterima oleh masyarakat. Bukti-bukti mengenai hal tersebut diuraikan sebagai berikut: Islam Jawa telah manunggal atau menyatu dalam kehidupan dan tradisi keagamaan masyarakat Jawa. Islam telah menjadi way of life dalam kehidupan orang Jawa. Hal ini dapat dibuktikan dengan makin meningkatnya aktualisasi nilai-nilai Islam yang telah mewarnai kehidupan Islam di Jawa. Termasuk di desa yang dulunya abangan. Tradisi keagamaan dari mulai ibadah wajib seperti salat, puasa, zakat, haji, perayaan hari besar Islam telah dilaksanakan dalam kehidupan Islam di Jawa. Hanya saja setiap Muslim memiliki tingkatan kualitas yang berbeda. Dari orang awam, ustaz, kyai, dan ulama sampai pejabat negara umumnya sudah memiliki kesadaran melaksanakan kewajiban agama. Tradisi sesaji pada setiap momen slametan seperti menanam padi, hajatan sunatan, hajatan pernikahan, dan saat-saat lainnya seperti sedekah bumi telah ditinggalkan secara alamiah. Dalam proses alamiah tersebut nilai-nilai tradisi sesaji yang hilang tergantikan dengan nilai baru yang berisi konten Islam. Islam secara prinsip telah mendasari perspektif hidup orang Jawa dalam setiap spektrum kehidupannya. Tradisi keagamaan pada masyarakat dengan segala aktivitas kesehariannya telah mengaktualisasikan nilai-nilai Islam. Mulai dari rumah, tempat kerja, dan dalam tata pergaulan masyarakat ajaran Islam telah mewarnai tata nilai masyarakat Jawa. Islam Jawa telah membentuk spektrum multikultural. Islam Jawa tidak hanya terbentuk dari tradisi pra Islam seperti Animisme, Dinamisme, Hindu-Budha tetapi terbentuk juga oleh kultur yang telah dibawa oleh para pendakwah Islam yang datang di Jawa seperti dari Arab, Persia, India, Cina, Champa. Islam Jawa kontemporer telah berkembang menjadi Islam multikultural yang merupakan akulturasi lintas budaya dari kultur pra Islam, Hindu-Budha, nilai Islam dan budaya Persia, India, Champa dan Cina yang hidup di Jawa. Akulturasi telah membentuk satu tata nilai kultur yang menyatupadukan tradisi dalam kehidupan Islam Jawa. Akulturasi tradisi meliputi tradisi tahlilan, tradisi slametan, tradisi berbusana, adat makan, gaya bahasa, tradisi memberi nama, falsafah hidup seni budaya dan nilai yang melingkupinya secara integral orang Jawa serta lainnya. Nilai Islam telah menjadi tata hidup yang fundamental dalam kehidupan orang Jawa dari mulai bangun tidur sampai tidur kembali. Warna Islam telah terserap ke dalam tata nilai kehidupan orang Jawa dalam semua dimensi kehidupan.

Music of the Baduy People of Western Java: Singing is a Medicine by Wim van Zanten is about music and dance of the indigenous group of the Baduy, consisting of about twelve-thousand people living in western Java. It covers music for rice rituals, for circumcisions and weddings, and music for entertainment. The book includes many photographs and several discussed audio-visual examples that can be found on DOI: 10.6084/m9.figshare.c.5170520. Baduy are suppposed to live a simple, ascetic life. However, there is a shortage of agricultural land and there are many temptations from the changing world around them. Little has been published on Baduy music and dance. Wim van Zanten’s book seeks to fill this lacuna and is based on short periods of fieldwork from 1976 to 2016.

Crucial themes and issues explored by a premier missiologist Johan Herman Bavinck (1895-1964) was a prominent twentieth-century Dutch Calvinist missiologist who wrestled with the tension between religious absolutism and relativism, as many Christians do in today's pluralistic context. The J. H. Bavinck Reader gathers together a choice selection of Bavinck's significant writings that are essential for understanding his theology of missions, his approach to world religions, and his religious psychology. His treatment of religious consciousness and Christian faith expands on the brief treatment of it in his own work The Church Between Temple and Mosque. The concluding chapters show how Bavinck's theoretical reflection on religious consciousness was rooted in his close observation during his years as a missionary in Indonesia. Offering a constructive way forward, Bavinck affirms both the particularity of salvation in Christ and the universality of the Christian hope. A substantial introduction enhances the book with the most thorough biographical sketch of Bavinck available.

This study examines the emergence of new forms of Islamic spirituality in Indonesia identified as Majlis Dhikr. These Majlis Dhikr groups have proliferated on Java in the last two decades, both in urban and rural areas, and have attracted followers from a wide social background. The diverse aspects of these Majlis Dhikr groups - their rituals, teachings and strategies of dissemination as well as the popular understanding of these rituals and their contestation by critics and opponents - are examined in detail and illustrated by reference to three particular groups - Salawat Wahidiyat, Istighathat Ihsaniyyat and Dhikr al-Ghafilin each of which has its own distinctive features and notable religious leadership. These Majlis Dhikr groups regard their activities as legitimate ritual practices that are in accordance with the legacy of Islamic Sufism based on the interpretation of the Qur'anic and Prophetic tradition.
