- Book Synopsis
- Constituting an archive of remembrances of the person and the contributions of the late Jonathan Z. Smith (1938-2017), section one this volume collects previously unpublished papers from three separate scholarly panels from the American Academy of Religion, the Society of Biblical Literature, and the North American Association for the Study of Religion in which a wide variety of scholars reflect on the impact Smith had on their own careers and the field at large. Section two includes revised versions of blog posts, many of which appeared shortly after news of Smith's death, in which scholars, journalists, and onetime students of Smith offer a more intimate and personal look at his legacy. The volume closes with the extended transcripts of seven interviews about Smith carried out with those who either trained or worked with him followed by a brief, previously unpublished essay by Smith himself. Taken together, the volume documents the role Smith's work has played in the modern field while providing a basis for further considering the future direction of the field.
