It is now more than a quarter century since Leonard Primiano's seminal article "Vernacular Religion and the Search for Method in Religious Folklife" launched the concept of Vernacular Religion to denote the study of "religion as it is lived: as human beings encounter, understand, interpret, and practice it." This issue of Traditiones brings insights into how people deal with enormous issues such as our place in the universe, our relationship with-other-than human beings, death, apocalypse and afterlives using an 'toolkit' of institutional and vernacular knowledge.
