This refrain in so much of recent polemical writing has permeated the public mind and can even be found in academic publications. But recent scholarship increasingly shows that this view is a gross simplification - that, in fact, religious beliefs and practices have ... Leer más

  • Spirited Things

    The Work of "Possession" in Afro-Atlantic Religions

    Edición de Paul Christopher Johnson ...
    The word “possession” is anything but transparent, especially as it developed in the context of the African Americas. There it referred variously to spirits, material goods, and people.

In Spirited Things, Paul Christopher ... Leer más
