Pagans and Things: Idolatry or Materiality?
Issue: Vol 12 No. 1 (2010)
Journal: Pomegranate: The International Journal of Pagan Studies
Subject Areas: Religious Studies
Abstract:
Although Michael York's work on idolatry is important to the study of Paganism, I see the word itself as problematic and provocative. Instead, I opt for the term "materiality" as being more neutral and pointing toward more expansive possibilities.
