✦ Synopsis

Although students of religion are fascinated by a common subject matter, they often comprehend it in radically different ways. This poses particular problems for the growth of knowledge in religious studies. How do individuals with world views and methods that may be highly idiosyncratic draw on one another's efforts and work together on collective projects? Examining four edited volumes on kingship suggests some ideas about the different ways in which the idea of a collective project is conceived and how alternative strands of scholarly endeavour are woven together.
