SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This article focuses on Jonathan Z. Smith's 1978 essay, "Map is Not Territory," in terms of its definition of religion, allegiance to anthropology and history, and avoidance of relativism. Updated to the author's situation forty years later, it articulates the relation between map and territory as one of asymmetrical dependence governed by the rule that the concrete includes the abstract and exceeds it in value. Reading Smith's essay in light of Donald Davidson's "On the Very Idea of a Conceptual Scheme" provides a philosophical argument against radical relativism. Two brief aperçu about Smith frame this account. This article focuses on Jonathan Z.
