Histories of Experience in the World of Lived Religion
Experience has become or is becoming a catchword among historical
studies and the use of the word is variable. Despite being used frequently,
experience has rarely been systematically conceptualized. The volume at
hand is an attempt to lay grounds for the methodology of the study of
experiences in history.
This collection of essays springs from the workshops where the contributors have shared their thoughts, ideas and preliminary papers. These
workshops were part of activities of lived religion group within HEX:
Academy of Finland Centre of Excellence in the History of Experiences.
This eight-year Centre rethinks historical experiences, historical explanations and historical knowledge, and their place in the current world. Hex’s
roots are in the traditions of new social history and history of emotions.
Our conceptual and methodological objective is the analytical history of
experiences: how experience is defned and used as a key part of historical
analysis.
