Taking as a starting point the insight that religions manifest in myriad sensible forms--in architecture, in images, in the use of objects in rituals, and in distinctive ways of speaking--Tamimi Arab traces to Spinoza the material-religion approach prevalent in anthropology and religious studies. It is in Locke's political philosophy, however, that forms are tied to toleration--understood as a neutrally applied civil right--which Tamimi Arab discusses through contemporary case studies of mosque construction, amplified calls to prayer, and the right to ritual slaughter. Going beyond the Enlightenment criticism and toleration of religions, the book concludes with an inclusive reading of Rawls' ideal of public reason, which assumes forms of discourse--religious and non-religious--to always be several. Religious forms thus turn out to be indispensable to liberal democracy itself. Pooyan Tamimi Arab is Assistant Professor of religious studies at Utrecht University. He is a board member of the Amsterdam Spinoza Circle and member of the Young Academy of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. 001445002 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed March 11, 2022). 001445002 650_0 $$aReligion and politics. 001445002 650_0 $$aReligion$$xPhilosophy. 001445002 650_0 $$aMaterialism$$xReligious aspects. 001445002 650_6 $$aReligion et politique. 001445002 650_6 $$aReligion$$xPhilosophie. 001445002 650_6 $$aMatérialisme$$xAspect religieux. 001445002 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001445002 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aTamimi Arab, Pooyan.$$tWhy do religious forms matter?$$dCham : Palgrave Macmillan, [2022]$$z9783030957780$$w(OCoLC)1308608551 001445002 830_0 $$aPalgrave pivot. 001445002 852__ $$bebk 001445002 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-95779-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001445002 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1445002$$pGLOBAL_SET 001445002 980__ $$aBIB 001445002 980__ $$aEBOOK 001445002 982__ $$aEbook 001445002 983__ $$aOnline 001445002 994__ $$a92$$bISE
