Book Description:
|
In this book, a study of the interplay between memory, music, and religion, Earle Waugh opens new areas of thought, particularly regarding a theme that cuts across religious traditions: the role of memory in religious formation. Through rituals of dhikr, or remembrance, the old forms of music and word blend into a new form of worship for today.
