4 Theories of Belief Cognitive vs. affective beliefs (p. 117) Habitus (p ) Reductionist theories (p ) Non-reductionist theories (p ) Belief and common sense (p ) Cognitive approaches (p ) Common Sense Leach, Malinowski, Geertz, Evans-Pritchard, Tonkinson (p ) Don t worry about this section Main point: belief is complicated!! Cognitive Approaches Study of the brain Luther Martin (note: he is NOT Martin Luther!) Non-reductionist (Whitehouse) Reductionist (Guthrie, Boyer) 15 16

7 Belief 2: The Study of Religion Study of Religion Protestant Reformation (Christianity) Martin Luther: 95 Theses (1517) Catholic church: institution b/t person and God; over-emphasis on rituals New Testament (Paul): Faith over works: You have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God not the result of works. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Study of Religion Tylor: Religion is belief in spiritual beings Why this focus? Protestant Christian view (NOT universal view) Faith over works Scholars of religion from Protestant cultures 27 28
8 Belief? Study of Religion Problems with thinking that religion is all about belief? 1. Language issues involving belief Various meanings in English No equivalent word for belief in some languages Study of Religion Problems with thinking that religion is all about belief? 2. Sometimes belief is not (that) important Different traditions Different people within the same traditions / communities Ritual 1: What is Ritual? 31 32

10 What is Ritual? Ritual = stuff people DO But which stuff?? (Nye p ) Not necessarily repeated (e.g., rite of passage) Many definitions! What is Ritual? Nye: ritual as meaningful action (p ) Meaning is not about the act itself About relation between act and person Same action might be meaningful for one person/time/place but not others Examples? Today s Song New Shoes by Paolo Nutini (2006) New Shoes Woke up cold one Tuesday, I m looking tired and feeling quite sick, I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life Hey, I put some new shoes on, And suddenly everything is right, I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody s smiling, it s so inviting, Oh, short on money,but long on time, Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine 39 40
11 Islamic Cultural Centre of Quebec City Rev. Dawn Leger (Anglican) Christ Church in Stouffville, ON Eucharist 43 44
12 Eid al-fitr (Tajikistan) Langar (Sikhism) Vegetarian food service in Gurdwara Free to all Principles of equality / no discrimination the light of God is in all hearts (Guru Granth Sahib) Golden Temple (Amritsar): feed approx. 80,000 people / day 47 48
13 What is Ritual? Ritual = stuff people DO (i.e., actions) But which stuff?? Many definitions! Ritual as meaningful action Meaning is relational Meaning depends on the people and the context Ritual Studies Ritual 2: Ritual Studies Ritual studies challenged academic assumption that religion was only about belief Focus on ACTIONS 51 52
14 Ritual Studies Crisis in the 1990s (Nye p. 148) If so many things can be called ritual, is this really a useful term? Change in focus: ritual theories used for interpretation, not as description Theories as tools for understanding actions, and not for labelling them as ritual (or not ritual ) Old question: Is this action a ritual? New question: What does this action mean? Ritual Studies 1. Ritual studies showed that actions were important in religion Religion was not only about belief 2. Shift in focus within ritual studies From Is this action a ritual? to What does this action mean? Film Analysis Ritual paragraph: Do not worry about whether an action is a ritual or not Simply use a theory of ritual to analyze any action(s) you like Question: what does the action mean? 55 56
15 Ritual Theories Ritual 3: Ritual Theories Emile Durkheim (society) Sigmund Freud (neurosis) Harvey Whitehouse (memory) Malory Nye (power) Arnold van Gennep (rites of passage) Ritual Theories Many theories focus on the FUNCTION of ritual (not content ) Not about (symbolic) meaning (e.g., bread = body of Christ) About the effect of the action(s) on participants Film Analysis! 59 Emile Durkheim Ritual binds people together (p ) Ritual does not just express relationships: the performance of rituals actually creates those relationships Regular attendance at religious site (church, mosque, synagogue, temple, etc.) Other examples? Lion King? 60
16 Hakuna Matata Sigmund Freud Ritual = neurosis (p. 143) Repetition brings comfort; avoids real problem(s) Might be true sometimes (not always): but need to know context Examples? Lion King? 63 64
17 Hakuna Matata Harvey Whitehouse Imagistic Rituals and memory (p ) Imagistic mode: high intensity (dramatic and/or traumatic) E.g., wedding, funeral, assault Doctrinal mode: mundane repetition (routine) E.g., daily prayer, national anthem Lion King? 67 68
