SUMMARY
The Oxford Handbook of Ritual Language, edited by David Tav谩rez, Professor of Anthropology at Vassar College, USA, is a recent addition to the Oxford Handbook series, Like other volumes in the series, it is conceived as a collection of chapters addressing key directions of research rather than as a comprehensive introduction to the field. It thus serves primarily as a reference work for those engaged in ritual studies, while remaining accessible to readers from adjacent disciplines.
