Book Synopsis Fragments of Bone by : Patrick Bellegarde-Smith
Download or read book Fragments of Bone written by Patrick Bellegarde-Smith and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Fragments of Bone, thirteen essayists discuss African religions as forms of resistance and survival in the face of Western cultural hegemony and imperialism. The collection presents scholars working outside of the Western tradition with backgrounds in a variety of disciplines, genders, and nationalities. These experts draw on research, fieldwork, personal interviews, and spiritual introspection to support a provocative thesis: that fragments of ancestral traditions are fluidly interwoven into New World African religions as creolized rituals, symbolic systems, and cultural identities. Contributors: Osei-Mensah Aborampah, Niyi Afolabi, Patrick Bellegarde-Smith, Randy P. Conner, T. J. Desch-Obi, Ina Johanna Fandrich, Kean Gibson, Marilyn Houlberg, Nancy B. Mikelsons, Roberto Nodal, Rafael Ocasio, Miguel "Willie" Ramos, and Denise Ferreira da Silva
Book Synopsis Race, Nation, and Religion in the Americas by : Henry Goldschmidt
Download or read book Race, Nation, and Religion in the Americas written by Henry Goldschmidt and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-08-12 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of all new essays will explore the complex and unstable articulations of race and religion that have helped to produce "Black," "White," "Creole," "Indian," "Asian," and other racialized identities and communities in the Americas. Drawing on original research in a range of disciplines, the authors will investigate: 1) how the intertwined categories of race and religion have defined, and been defined by, global relations of power and inequality; 2) how racial and religious identities shape the everyday lives of individuals and communities; and 3) how racialized and marginalized communities use religion and religious discourses to contest the persistent power of racism in societies structured by inequality. Taken together, these essays will define a new standard of critical conversation on race and religion throughout the Americas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The first time I witnessed a Spiritist surgery, a young man named Jose Carlos Ribeiro inserted a used scalpel taken from a tray that I was holding, and plunged it into the eye of an elderly man. The patient did not move....” Decades of fieldwork later, Sidney Greenfield presents a riveting ethnography of the complex world of religious healing in Brazil that challenges readers to grapple with the most fundamental concepts of anthropology and cross-cultural experience. In a major contribution to cultural biology, he analyses the complex social, economic, and political landscape of Brazil to understand dramatic healing practices that seem to defy medical explanation.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge History of Religions in Latin America by : Virginia Garrard-Burnett
Download or read book The Cambridge History of Religions in Latin America written by Virginia Garrard-Burnett and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 995 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge History of Religions in Latin America covers religious history in Latin America from pre-Conquest times until the present. This publication is important; first, because of the historical and contemporary centrality of religion in the life of Latin America; second, for the rapid process of religious change which the region is undergoing; and third, for the region's religious distinctiveness in global comparative terms, which contributes to its importance for debates over religion, globalization, and modernity. Reflecting recent currents of scholarship, this volume addresses the breadth of Latin American religion, including religions of the African diaspora, indigenous spiritual expressions, non-Christian traditions, new religious movements, alternative spiritualities, and secularizing tendencies.

Book Synopsis O Mistério dos senhores de vênus vol.III - deuses, venusianos e capelinos by : Jorge Bessa
Download or read book O Mistério dos senhores de vênus vol.III - deuses, venusianos e capelinos written by Jorge Bessa and published by Tagore Editora. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A trilogia – O Mistério dos Senhores de Vênus: Os Deuses Que Vieram do Céu; A Pluralidade dos Mundos Habitados e a Evolução do Homem; Deuses, Venusianos e Capelinos é o resultado de vários anos de pesquisa de Jorge da Silva Bessa que se consagra como profundo estudioso das mitologias e crenças religiosas que marcaram a história da humanidade. Nas quase 500 páginas desta trilogia o autor procura mostrar que, ao longo de nossa história, sempre estivemos amparados e sendo instruídos por elevadíssimas consciências espirituais, conhecidas como deuses, “jardineiros siderais”, “anjos do Senhor” e extraterrestres, entre outras denominações, no seio de quasetodasasgrandescivilizaçõesdopassado. Os deuses do passado, hoje, estão cada vez mais presentes, pois jamais deixaram a humanidade à sua própria sorte. Eles são os mesmos sábios espíritos de outrora, encarregados da execução direta da evolução planetária, que agora intervêm, de forma mais direta para promover essa mudança que alguns chamam Nova Era,FimdoMundoouApocalipse.
