Robert N. Bellah, distinguished author of many books including The Robert Bellah Reader, has won the American Academy of Religion’s Martin E. Marty Public Understanding of Religion Award. The award goes to those whose work has a relevance and eloquence that speaks, not just to scholars, but more broadly to the public as well. Duke Press celebrated Bellah’s award with a wine and cheese reception at the annual meeting of the AAR in San Diego yesterday.
