Description - Mormon Identities in Transition by Professor Douglas Davies
This collection of essays explores the relation between knowledge and spirituality in Mormonism, and how that relation has been defined and reinterpreted over time. Beginning with an examination of the international prospects for Mormonism at the turn of the century, the volume's dominating theme, from a sociological, anthropological and theological view, is the examination of changing Mormon identities. Contributors, including practising Mormons, review the expansion of Mormonism, the emotional and social contexts of its historic and contemporary manifestations, the distinctions between "Utah" Mormons and the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, issues in Mormon feminism and the future of Mormon Studies. The book concludes with a review of the sources and documents available for studying Mormonism.
