The series Religion and Society (RS) contributes to the exploration of religions as social systems– both in Western and non-Western societies; in particular, it examines religions in their differentiation from, and intersection with, other cultural systems, such as art, economy, law and politics. Due attention is given to paradigmatic case or comparative studies that exhibit a clear theoretical orientation with the empirical and historical data of religion and such aspects of religion as ritual, the religious imagination, constructions of tradition, iconography, or media. In addition, the formation of religious communities, their construction of identity, and their relation to society and the wider public are key issues of this series.

It seems unlikely that anyone will misunderstand the precise subject itself. What, exactly, is meant by an author "going wrong"? The familiar euphemism, as perhaps most frequently used, is anything but ambiguous. For an author, "going wrong" has a great variety of meanings. An author has gone wrong, for example, when he has deliberately done work under his best. He has gone wrong when he has written for sentimental or aesthetic reasons and not, as he should, for money primarily. He has gone wrong when he tries to uplift or educate his readers. He has gone wrong when he has written too many books or has not written enough books. Or, has written too fast or not fast enough. Perhaps, when he has written what he saw and not what he felt, or what he felt and not what he saw, or posed in any fashion whatsoever.
