Rebuilding Community

Displaced Women and the Making of a Shia Ismaili Muslim Sociality

Omschrijving

Rebuilding Community tells the story of Shia Ismaili Muslim women who recreated religious community (jamat) in the aftermath of successive displacements over the course of the twentieth century. Drawing on oral histories, fieldwork, and memory texts, Shenila Khoja-Moolji illuminates the placemaking activities through which Ismaili women reproduce bonds of spiritual kinship: from cooking for congregants on feast days and looking after sickcoreligionists to engaging in memory work through miracle stories and cookbooks.
