The Way

In this introductory essay to the theme issue “Intersections of Discourses – Pliable Body, the Making of Religion, and Social Definition,” we sketch the main contours of thinking about human bodiliness in religion. This relates both to the way in which bodies and ways of bodiliness feature in religious discourse and practice but also to the way in which scholarly theorising deal with human bodies in religion. Our argument is based on two main points of departure, namely that bodies are constructed products of discourse and that “religion” is a set of somaticising practices. After a long neglect, the body was rediscovered as a core topic for religious studies in the wake of four intersecting force fields, namely the interest in human bodies in anthropology and sociology, the intellectual legacy of Michel Foucault, the emergence of spirituality as lived religion, and interest in religious experience as study field. In sum, it is argued that the essays presented here constitute a reminder that religious discourses are not languages “out of this world”, but are very much human languages effecting human intentional (and unintentional) outcomes in interactional social and cultural settings.

The World

Ukrainian religious studies have deep roots. We find the elements of it in the written descendants of the writings of Kievan Rus. From the prince's time, the universal way of vision, understanding and appreciation of the world for many Ukrainian thinkers becomes their own religious experiences. The main purpose of their works is not the desire to create a certain integral system of theological knowledge, but the desire to convey their personal religious-minded perception of the divine nature, harmony, beauty and perfection of God created the world.
