Book Synopsis Theology and the First Theory of Sacrifice by : Ivan Strenski
Book excerpt: Strenski argues that public discourse about religious notions, like sacrifice, cannot be theological in our modern societies. Theological notions of sacrifice and theological approaches to it should be replaced by those like that developed by the Durkheimians because theological discourse cannot but help being religiously biased.
