Religion as a Space of Pleasure Production

Abstract

An article offers a new view on religious discourse reception. It is viewed from the standpoint of «new hedonistic logic» which is elaborated by the author in a framework of «attractive-analysis» project. The key concepts of this approach such as «hedonistic and trans-gradient narrative» and «cis-trans» are discussed. Some particular narrative situations where the connection of the religious and the hedonistic is distinctly observed are investigated in the light of the given concepts.
