About the Journal

This international journal offers a platform for scholarship that challenges the traditional boundary between religion and non-religion and the tacit assumptions underlying this distinction. It invites contributions from a critical perspective on various cultural formations that are usually excluded from religion by the gatekeeping practices of the general public, practitioners, the law, and even some scholars of religion.

Call for Papers: "Private and Intimate Spaces of Spirituality"

2024-10-08

Implicit Religion invites submissions for a special issue titled "Private and Intimate Spaces of Spirituality," which seeks to explore the dynamic and intimate interconnections between physical spaces, religious creativity, and spiritual experience. This issue aims to broaden the discourse on spiritual spaces and practices and their impact on individual and collective spirituality. We encourage contributors to critically engage with notions like private (as opposed to public) and categories like spirituality and religion in their contributions as part of the journal's focus on interrogating the boundaries between categories and the assumptions underlying the distinctions they produce. We also encourage contributors to situate these notions and categories against their particular cultural, social and geographical contexts. 

Guest Editors: 

Professor Henrietta Grönlund, University of Helsinki 

Dr Alastair Lockhart, University of Cambridge   

Dr Krzysztof Nawratek, University of Sheffield
