Spirituality of Maum: Everyday Vernaculars of Soul, Body, and Heart

So Jung Kim

This book argues that spirituality is the modus operandi of our soul, body, and heart speaking and doing the Word of God, God-talk, or theology in everyday language. The book demonstrates this modus operandi of spirituality as a way of mystic science and reframe it with Korean indigenous concept maum. By so doing, the book suggests a new perspective and a way of doing an Asian feminist theology in conversation with constructive ethnography and anthropology as well.
