Abstract

What lead you to your present academic interest?

Dr. Catherine Bell, former Chair of the Department of Religious Studies at Santa Clara University introduces herself as a scholar with a Catholic family background and an undergraduate degree in philosophy. She became interested in the academic study of religion and moved to her current study of Chinese religion and ritual as a way of understanding how people construct a worldview with beliefs that differ significantly from her own worldview.
