Description

Description from Directory of Open Access Books (opens in a new tab)

This edited volume brings together research on religious, esoteric, and philosophical practices that intentionally aim to transform their practitioners. Various analytical tools will be developed to shed new light on "intentional transformative experiences," how to understand them, and how to theorize with them. A special interest lies on the hitherto overlooked subparts of such experiences, for example intentionality, risk, and failure.
