Rapport with God
View through CrossRef
Abstract
In taking up Brigg’s (1986) earlier cautions about researchers imposing their conceptual frameworks on communicative activities that are being studied, this chapter considers how rapport is conceptualized among a diverse array of Muslim Indonesians across time and space. In doing so, it examines the ideologization of the sign vehicles used for the mediation of rapport. At the same time, it provides insights into some of the understandings that constitute preconditions to rapport. In this case, it shows how different languages and embodied practices are constructed as mediums associated with different ways of establishing rapport with God. In looking at rapport in this way, the chapter models one way for exploring local theories of rapport.
