{"product_id":"9780813932774","title":"Textual Intimacy : Autobiography and Religious Identities (Studies in Religion and Culture)","description":"\u003cp\u003eGiven its affinity with questions of identity, autobiography offers a way into the interior space between author and reader, especially when writers define themselves in terms of religion. In his exploration of this \"\"textual intimacy,\"\" Wesley Kort begins with a theorisation of what it means to say who one is and how one's self-account as a religious person stands in relation to other forms of self-identification. He then provides a critical analysis of autobiographical texts by nine contemporary American writers -- including Maya Angelou, Philip Roth, and Anne Lamott -- who give religion a positive place in their accounts of who they are. Finally, in disclosing his own religious identity, Kort concludes with a meditation on several meanings of the word assumption.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Virginia Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42755915186251,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1033.94,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/0023\/7387\/files\/9780813932774-1.jpg?v=1785004611","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.co.th\/products\/9780813932774","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Thailand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
