Bringing together affect theorists, theologians, biblical scholars, and scholars of religion, the essays take up topics as various as biblical literature, Christology, animism, Rastafarianism, the women's Mosque Movement, the unending Korean War, trans and gender queer identities, YA fiction, queer historiography, the prison industrial complex, debt, and neoliberalism. * Interpretation: A Journal of Bible and Theology * Religion, Emotion, Sensation responds to the urgent needs of our times with a collection of brilliant essays that place affect theories and religious studies in critical intimacy with prisons, debt, national mourning, ecology and more. The introduction by editors Karen Bray and Stephen D. Moore masterfully frames this moving and inspiring collection. -- Patricia Ticineto Clough, Ph.D., The User Unconscious, Affect, Media, Measure
