Rhetoric and religious change

Paul Lynch’s book considers how religion is changing in a post-secular, post-Christian context, where Christianity’s influence remains part of the landscape. It introduces “theorhetoric,” described as a new approach to speaking about the divine, and looks toward the possibility of new religious forms. The available description ends before explaining the reference to “Ren,” so the scope of that part of the book is unclear.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in rhetoric and the language used to discuss religion.
  • Readers exploring religious change in post-secular societies.
