    This article examines experiences of the uncanny within woodlands of Southern England among walkers who have impaired vision. It proposes that uncanny experiences disrupt assumptions that humans actively perceive a passive landscape by approaching the landscape as an actant provoking uncanny experiences that shift senses of self-landscape relations. Optical tropes have pervaded notions of both the uncanny and conceptualizations of self-landscape relations in contemporary European intellectual thought. Here, attention to the case study of blindness reconfigures these understandings and reveals the slippery nexus of the visible and the invisible in uncanny experiences. Motifs of vision are refracted in the experiences of “phantom vision” through which people who have noncongenitally impaired vision might “see” in their “mind’s eye.” The palpable, felt, multisensorial senses of the uncanny are revealed with the presences of trees and visceral nature of darkness. Uncanny landscapes are characterized by presences, the unknown, and disjunctures, in which notions of familiarity and strangeness, known and unknown, collide.

    This article intends to explore the various approaches to materiality and religion that have been used in the study of religions in Africa, and in South Africa in particular. It explores recent scholarship on materiality and religion advanced by David Morgan (2012) as well as Dick Houtman and Birgit Meyer (2012), and then turn to David Chidester (2018), with some attention to Johan Strijdom (2014) to examine the framing of the debate in the Southern African context. The aim is to point out specific ways in which religion scholars privilege materiality of visuality, space, and ritual studies, at the expense of other ways of knowing and being. The article then advances some suggestions as to why or how these regimes are sustained and point out some problematics. It examines the use of everyday material objects in new religious movements in South Africa and interrogate their contested reception. The article moves to unpack how contemporary debates about the indigenous and new religious movements or cults in South Africa represent conflicts on what 'things' may possess sacred qualities and how they may be endowed with religious authority. In this regard, the article will focus on the taxonomies and afterlife of things in the work of Arjun Appadurai (1988, 2006) and its location in relation to the black body, to explore how black bodies are scripted and imagined in relation to material religion. Finally, it raises some questions on how local debates about religion and materiality - with respect to the embodied and things - represent not just disruptions over what constitute religion, but also about how contests over the use of everyday objects signal the emergence of indigenous ways of knowing and being in African religious contexts.

    Rituals obviously utilize the human senses. Theological and mystical interpretations frequently comment on sensation as a source of metaphors for religious experience. However, the discourse used in religious rituals themselves usually avoids using the normal vocabulary appropriate to particular sensations, while focusing on ritual performance instead. This raises the question of whether it is generally the case that ritualizing sensation diverts attention from sensation to ritual behavior, and whether ritual interpretations usually divert attention from the sensation to its metaphorical meaning. This essay addresses these questions with the analytical tools of metaphor theory and ritual theory. To test and apply these theories, it focuses on one kind of ritual practices, those that involving written texts, especially books of scripture, and how they use the senses of sight, hearing, and touch.

    An drei Werken in drei verschiedenen medialen Bereichen (Film, Literatur, Musik) wird hermeneutisch rekonstruiert, wie die Daseinsthemen der Menschen im sozialen Schicksal der Lebenszyklen in der Verstrickung der Geschichten im Alltag im sozialen Kontext der Geschichte im Sinne eines poetischen Programms aufgegriffen, verarbeitet und reflektiert werden. Dabei spielen in allen drei Fällen Milieus und Charaktere eine konstitutive Rolle. Zeitgeschichtliche Zusammenhänge kommen damit zum Ausdruck. Von bleibender Bedeutung sind aber die Motivzusammenhänge, die im jeweiligen Stoff wirksam werden. Politische und moralische Aspekte werden über die konkreten Geschichten, die erzählt werden, transportiert. With reference to three different works in three different media (crime stories on TV, novels and chansons), this study’s hermeneutical analysis reconstructs poetics as poetic programmes of patterns of narration of existential issues in everyday life during the life cycles of people embedded in the social world between historical and biographical destiny, social character and social milieus. In the background, the storytelling in all three works and media is embedded in contemporary history. But the study’s analysis places emphasis on the lasting meaning of existential issues in connection with some social, moral and political aspects of reflection incorporated into the narration.

  5. Virtual Buddhism
    an analysis of aesthetics in relation to religious practice within second life

    Up to this point the majority of studies on religion and the internet has focused on Christianity (Campbell: 2007), Islam (Bunt: 2001, 2003) or identity (Turkle: 1995) and there has been very little attention surrounding Buddhism and the internet. This article will focus on the analysis of the senses in relation to religious practice undertaken by avatars visiting the Buddha Centre within Second Life. I will examine two interconnected aspects; the virtual environment and the senses. I will illustrate and consider why the aesthetics of the virtual environment imitates the offline environment. Furthermore, I will demonstrate that the virtual environment provides not only a rich visual and aural experience but also includes the sense of virtual touch, thus capturing three of the five senses within online religious practice. I will use an inter-disciplinary methodology including ethnography and visual analysis to examine the sensory practice in Second Life. Accordingly, the analysis of virtual touch, sight and sound in relation to religious practice within the Buddhist temple, art gallery and its surroundings will be situated within the field of religion, media and culture. In conclusion, I will assert that there is a need for further investigation of Buddhism online and that the study of the senses online should include not only the aural and visual but also virtual touch, thus reflecting further on the embodied virtual sensory experience. This article will, therefore, provide an innovative approach and contribution to the study of Buddhism and the senses online.

    Hinduism is a fully embodied religion yet it is being practised in cyberspace where a degree of disembodiment occurs. In this article I consider the nature of the body in Hinduism and discuss this in the light of Hindu religious activity online. The lack of full embodiment online suggests that widespread Hindu online activity is unsuited to cyberspace. However, an investigation of the Hindu puja ceremony and its online manifestation indicates that an important aspect of embodiment remains when an individual performs the ceremony online. Furthermore, as a result of the Hindu belief that mind and the physical external body are inextricably related, cyberspace proves to be a highly suitable environment for the carrying out of the Hindu puja ceremony.

    This article asks about the processes of "seeing the other" using the medium of cinema. Films discussed include Baraka, West Bank Story, Eve and the Fire Horse, and Babette's Feast. Each demonstrates unique perspectives on distinct religious traditions, exploring differences as well as resemblances. Two consequences emerge. First, films are not merely "escape" that people watch and then forget about. Instead, what we see "on screen" changes our relationships with other people "off screen". Watching movies becomes part of the social construction of reality, constructing our understandings of race, religion, gender, nationality, and ethnicity. Thus, films that demonstrate strong interreligious connections may affect our perceptions of seeing each other. Second, comparing these films allows us to see how interreligious connections are not merely about "dialogue", but about shared food, smells, sights, and spatial locations. The sensate body stands at the heart of religious life, as well as the heart of interreligious connections.
