About Religion: Economies of Faith in Virtual Culture (Religion and Postmodernism Series)

by M C Taylor (Author)

Synopsis

Travelling from high culture to pop culture and back again, this book approaches cyberspace and Las Vegas through Hegel and Kant and reads Melville's The Confidence-Man through the film Wall Street . As juxtapositions and associations proliferate, formerly uncharted territories of virtual culture disclose theological vestiges, showing that faith in contemporary culture is as unavoidable as it is elusive.
