"The Concise Encyclopedia of Language and Religion provides the specialist and the general reader with accurate, up-to-date information on every aspect of the crucial interface between language and religion. Easy access to material in over 300 articles by scholars in many fields is provided both in a clear thematic arrangement, and by means of a comprehensive and detailed general index." "The Concise Encyclopedia of Language and Religion brings together articles and biographical entries drawn from the award-winning Encyclopedia of Language and Linguistics, all of which have been revised and updated appropriately. These are supplemented by over 110 completely new articles specially written for the present work, and a Glossary of basic concepts and terms in linguistics, making this volume coherent, comprehensive, and accessible to a wide audience."--Jacket.
