Sacred Symbols and Modern Narratives: Applying Rhetorical Analysis to Pop Culture References to Religion
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The interplay between sacred symbols and modern narratives is a compelling avenue of inquiry for scholars examining the influence of religion within contemporary media. In an era where visual and auditory stimuli permeate everyday life, the rhetorical deployment of religious symbols within popular culture often shapes societal beliefs and cultural perceptions in significant, sometimes unrecognized, ways. Analyzing the complex layering of these symbols in various media forms—such as film, music, and television—illuminates not only the contextual specificities of spiritual imagery but also the broader implications of such representations on public consciousness.
