Religion and religiosity are historical phenomena that have taken on different forms and characteristics in various periods. Understanding these transformations can contribute to a more precise grasp of the relationship between humanity, religion, and society, as well as an understanding of the differences in religious experiences across diverse historical eras.
In this lecture, titled "The Specific Characteristics of Religion and Religiosity in Five Historical Periods," Mohammad Mojtahed Shabestari examines the features of religion and religiosity in five historical periods. The focus of the discussion is on the historical and social differences of religious experience and how diverse forms of religiosity take shape.
The significance of this discussion lies in the fact that it does not consider religion merely as a fixed and uniform phenomenon, but rather pays attention to its historical evolution and the conditions that have influenced the formation and transformation of religiosity.
