Abstract

Jonathan Z. Smith’s essay “Religion, Religions, Religious” is a foundational essay in the study of “religion” as a taxonomic category. The essay itself makes three interrelated arguments that situate religion in Western intellectual history and argue that “religion” is a term scholars define to suit their own intellectual purposes. Though the essay, and Smith’s work overall, have had a major influence in religious studies, that influence has not reached deeply into the study of American religious history. Using Smith’s essay as a guide, this essay offers a brief application of his arguments in “Religion, Religions, Religious” to American religious history and, specifically, to the category “evangelicalism.”
美国的“宗教,宗教,宗教”:史密斯对“福音主义”的描述
乔纳森·史密斯的论文《宗教,宗教,宗教》是研究“宗教”作为分类学范畴的基础性文章。这篇文章本身提出了三个相互关联的论点,将宗教置于西方思想史中,并认为“宗教”是学者们为了满足自己的思想目的而定义的一个术语。尽管这篇文章以及史密斯的所有著作对宗教研究产生了重大影响,但这种影响并没有深入到美国宗教史的研究中。本文以史密斯的文章为指导,简要介绍了他在《宗教,宗教,宗教》一书中对美国宗教史的论述,特别是对“福音主义”这一范畴的论述。

期刊介绍: Method & Theory in the Study of Religion publishes articles, notes, book reviews and letters which explicitly address the problems of methodology and theory in the academic study of religion. This includes such traditional points of departure as history, philosophy, anthropology and sociology, but also the natural sciences, and such newer disciplinary approaches as feminist theory and studies. Method & Theory in the Study of Religion also concentrates on the critical analysis of theoretical problems prominent in the study of religion.
