Summary |
The role of religious imagination in religious
consciousness/ideas is a topic of interest to psychologists, theologians, religious
studies scholars, and philosophers of religion. Study of religious imagination
often goes together with phenomenology of religious experience, with the study
of religious art, comparative mythology, and with model-theoretic and narrative theologies. Because
imagination suggests human construction, its role and extent is especially
controversial. A special concern for epistemology of religion is its
implications for debate between realists vs. non-realists about the aims of
religious discourse. |
