Religion and Its Monsters
Religious encounters with mystery can be fascinating, but also terrifying. Religion has a lot to do with horror, and horror has a lot to do with religion. So too when it comes to encounters with the monsters that haunt Jewish and Christian traditions.
In this unusual and provocative book, Timothy Beal explores how religion, horror, and the monstrous are deeply intertwined. Religion has its monsters, and monsters have their religion. This new edition has been thoughtfully updated, reflecting on developments in the field over the past two decades and highlighting its contributions to emerging conversations.
It also features a new chapter, "Gods, Monsters, and Machines," which engages cultural fascinations and anxieties about technologies of artificial intelligence and machine learning as they relate to religion and the monstrous at the dawn of the Anthropocene.
