More about the book
Focusing on the rhetoric of hagiographical works, the book explores how religious communities establish legitimacy through their connections with holy figures. It examines the ways these groups "imagine" their affiliations, utilizing songs and stories to celebrate and honor these holy men. Through this lens, it provides insights into the formation and identity of religious groupings.
