Free Download Beatrice Marovich, "Sister Death: Political Theologies for Living and Dying"
English | ISBN: 0231208367 | 2023 | 304 pages | PDF | 31 MB
Life and death are commonly seen as representing the starkest of binaries: Death is the ultimate adversary of all that lives. Beatrice Marovich argues that such understandings of mortality have been deeply influenced by a strain of Christian political theology that has left its mark on both religious and secular narratives.
