Historically, fetishes are implicated in specific struggles for sovereign (political) and/or religious (hierarchical) power, with their interwoven symbols defined as the primary location for transcendence in our world. This book defines the political consequences of fetish-objects within a western cultural, and primarily theological context through a comparative approach of various literatures on fetish-objectsanthropological to the psychological, Marxist to the theological. It reconceives of fetishes as a form of resistance to oppressive structures, something which motivated Christians themselves historically, and shaped our western understanding of the sacraments far more than has been acknowledged. Taking up this conversation likewise holds forth the possibility of reconceptualizing how fetish-objects and sacramental presences both speak profoundly to our late-modern selves. 000930299 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 10, 2020). 000930299 650_0 $$aFetishism. 000930299 650_0 $$aFetishes (Ceremonial objects) 000930299 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030407748$$z9783030407742$$w(OCoLC)1135664568 000930299 830_0 $$aRadical theologies and philosophies. 000930299 852__ $$bebk 000930299 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-40775-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000930299 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:930299$$pGLOBAL_SET 000930299 980__ $$aEBOOK 000930299 980__ $$aBIB 000930299 982__ $$aEbook 000930299 983__ $$aOnline 000930299 994__ $$a92$$bISE
