Religion and the Arts seeks innovative explorations of the relationships among memory, the arts of all kinds, and religion understood both traditionally and counterintuitively. Digital memory and creation, photography and videography, secularism reconceived through material culture, and new rituals for remembrance will be considered. Public and private, ordained and vernacular, means of memory are within this scope. We solicit articles and reviews comparative and particular; on Western and non-Western topics; and engaging various subjects such as gender, sexuality, collective/individual, institutional/innovative, and ritual.
