In this book Maurice Bloch synthesises a radical theory of religion. Rituals inmany societies deny the transience of life and of human institutions. Bloch argues that they enact this denial by symbolically sacrificing the participants themselves, so allowing them to participate in the immortality of a transcendent entity.
