The book by contemporary British researcher Graham Harvey offers a fundamentally new perspective on religiosity and how it should be studied. Religion here is not limited to high theology, the usual institutional framework and the concepts of Western European intellectual culture - it is included in the flow of real life of real people and is therefore considered as one of the dimensions of everyday life. How is religion related to cooking and the rules of communal meals? How does it regulate sexual relations and the very idea of corporeality? How does one define interaction with strangers? Answering these and other questions, the author offers not only a new concept of religiosity, but also a new vision of science and human nature. The study contains unique material concerning the religious traditions of indigenous peoples, as well as Judaism, modern paganism and phenomena such as Pastafarianism.
