We are inviting book chapter proposals for the edited collection entitled Religion Book Editors
and AI: Theoretical and empirical approaches (Bloomsbury Publishing). The
book will draw on cross-disciplinary conversations between scholars in media
studies, sociology of religion, and visual arts (architecture, film, painting, art
history, etc.) The project brings together various theoretical and empirical
perspectives on Religion and Artificial Intelligence and aims to investigate the
impact and promise of AI for religious institutions, communities, and individuals;
as well as the role AI might play in the representation of religion. The book aims
to provide a comprehensive look into uses, understandings, narratives, and
projections of the relationship between religion and AI.
While the book will include theoretical chapters and reflective essays from the
editors, this call is specifically for empirical case studies (4000-6000
words) in one of the following areas:
• AI and Judaism
• AI and Hinduism
• AI and Buddhism
• AI and religion in the Global South
• AI and religious art
• AI and religious architecture
• AI and religiously or spiritually related visual communication
If you are interested, please send Ruth Tsuria (ruth.tsuria@shu.edu) an abstract (250
words) by November 1 , 2024.
Full chapters will be Due on February 15th, 2025.
