Bücher von Sean McCloud

Placing the neglected issue of class back into the study and understanding of religion, this work reconsiders the meaning of class in this world. It states that more than a status grounded in material conditions class is also an identity rhetorically and symbolically made and unmade through representations.

In an examination of religion coverage in Time, Newsweek, Life, The Saturday Evening Post, Ebony, Christianity Today, National Review, and other news magazines, Sean McCloud combines religious history and social theory to analyze how and why mass-market magazines depicted religions as ""mainstream"" or ""fringe"" in the post-World War II United States.
