Autorenporträt
Nadia Bartolini is an associate research fellow at the University of Exeter. Her work has looked at how tangible heritage is incorporated in contemporary urban planning in Rome. Prior to undertaking her PhD, she worked in Indigenous research and policy in the Canadian Federal Government. Her research focuses on issues surrounding urban cultures, heritage and the built environment. She has published on spiritualities that lie outside mainstream religions in London, Manchester and Stoke-on-Trent, in particular how spiritual values are transmitted through communities and across generations. Sara MacKian is currently Senior Lecturer in Health and Wellbeing at The Open University. Her research to date has been driven by a curiosity for how people and organisations interact around issues of health, wellbeing and meaning making. More recently she has developed research around alternative spiritualities in contemporary society, based on a fascination with the relationship between the real and the imaginary, the body and the spirit, this world and the otherworldly. She is author of Everyday Spirituality (2012). Steve Pile teaches Geography at The Open University. He has published on issues concerning place and the politics of identity. Steve is author of Real Cities (2005) and The Body and The City (1996), which both develop a psychoanalytic approach to geography. It is through these projects that he became interested in alternative spiritualities and their relationship to contemporary modernity. His many collaborative projects include the recent collection, Psychoanalytic Geographies, edited with Paul Kingsbury.
