DESCRIPTION:Religious practice necessarily involves the use of media to br
 idge the gap between immanence and transcendence. Scholarship has been inc
 reasingly interested in the relationship between religion and media and ho
 w material and immaterial objects become entangled in religious belief-sys
 tems and practices. In this respect\, the issue of authority emerges as pa
 ramount.\n\nThe workshop aims at exploring the interplay of authority\, re
 ligion\, and media. It will include scholars from different disciplines 
 –religious studies\, media studies\, art history\, philology – present
 ing a wide range of case studies from different geographical and historica
 l contexts\, focusing both on authority as discussed within specific relig
 ious communities and as negotiated between different religious groups. In 
 particular\, the workshop assumes a material approach to investigate the f
 ollowing topics: Religion authorizing media\, Media authorizing religion\,
  Mediated representations of religion.\n\nWorkshop's programme\n
