Complementary readings for Myth & Mythmaking, Critical Theory and Religion in London classes

A few people asked me for some some supplementary reading materials for our class so here is a selection of articles. All theses articles are fully referenced with bibliography. Those with hyper links are available on-line. Otherwise, you can go to Bookmarks bookshop just round the corner from SOAS on the corner of Gower and New Oxford St and buy the journals-most of the old ones are only £1!! Failing that, I have copies which you could borrow. Email me at revolution@soas.ac.uk or ask me in class.

There are many more topics that you can search for yourself here. Just type the key word into the search function. It is not the best search facility so try a few combinations.
