Religion, Cognition and Culture
Edited by: Jeppe Sinding Jensen & Armin W. Geertz

The series explores the role of religion and culture in cognitive formation and brings into contact theories and approaches from the humanities, the social sciences and cognitive sciences. The series is associated with the research group Religion, Cognition and Culture at the Laboratory on Theories of Religion, University of Aarhus http://www.teo.au.dk/en/research/current/cognition on which these volumes are based. The International Association for the Cognitive Science of Religion (IACSR) http://www.iacsr.com was founded during one of the conferences. Future volumes include

Symbolization in Religion, Cognition and Culture – edited by Jeppe Sinding Jensen. This volume will explore recent studies of memory, representation and symbolization in the brain, language, symbolic systems and in religious narrative and action.

Ritual Behaviour in Religion, Cognition and Culture – edited by Armin W. Geertz. One of the keys to understanding religion and cognition is ritual behaviour. The focus will be on neurological, biological and psychological processes as well as insights gained from ethology, and studies in semantics and social dynamics.

Meaning in Religion, Cognition and Culture – edited by Jeppe Sinding Jensen. Meaning has been one of the main subjects of philosophy, linguistics, psychology and social psychology, anthropology and the study of religion throughout the histories of those disciplines. The difference here is that new methods and insights from the neurosciences allow us to explore the problem of meaning which is at the core of all human communication.
