CHAPTER X SUMMARY AND EXPLANATIONS We have noticed a great variety of superstitious beliefs and practices connected with Moorish marriages. Sometimes divination is resorted to by the young man's mother in choosing a suitable wife for her son.1 Sometimes the girl prevents a betrothal which she finds objectionable by making use of bad and ominous words or by behaving like a woman at a funeral.2 The transference of conditional curses by means of 'tfr-sacrifices is a common method of bringing about a betrothment;s and even when no such sacrifice is made it is considered bad if the girl's father or parents persist in refusing a proposal.4 In some Berber tribes the fear of l-ar has led to a custom which makes it possible for a married woman to run away from her husband and, by taking refuge in another man's dwelling, compel the latter to marry her.6 The wheat which is to be used for the wedding, and which has been cleaned in the bridegroom's house, must not be taken to other houses to be ground; for it would be bad to do at a wedding what is regularly done at a funeral 1--a feeling which also prevents honey being served at a wedding.2 On the other hand, it is supposed to bring good luck if the bachelors who are present on the occasion when the wheat is cleaned and ground now and then take part in the grinding and singing.8 A superstitious importance is attached to the grit which has been removed from the wheat; it is put in a clean place so as not to be defiled,4 or it is thrown on the floor of the bridegroom's dwelling in order that the wedding shall be attended by many guests,5 or the bridegroom casts it together with dried fruit on the bride when she approaches the door of his house,6 or it is disposed of in some other manner still to be...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1914, this title was the first comparative study of the marriage ceremonies in different parts of Morocco. Westermarck considers how ceremonial customs and rituals differ across social and cultural groups throughout the country and discusses their possible roots. Based on extensive primary research, visiting many of the tribes and places mentioned in the book, this is a really fascinating title of great value to students of sociology and cultural anthropology with an interest in the foundations of the marriage ceremony.

Download or read book Modernization and Marriage Ceremonies in the Amazigh Culture written by Fatima Gaddar and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its independence in 1956, Morocco has embarked on a process of social, economic and political development in an attempt to build a modern nation. However, this has resulted in profound mutations in the Moroccan culture in general and the Amazigh one in particular. From an ethnographic perspective, the book seeks to provide an account of the impact of modernization on the Amazigh cultural heritage in Morocco. More specifically, the study is concerned with the investigation of the gradual loss of the Amazigh culture among Ayt Merghad, with a special focus on the rituals of marriage. An attempt is also made to uncover the forces that have reshaped these practices and transformed them into their current state. The researcher argues that a vision of development that excludes the cultural dimension cannot do justice to the local cultures. Today, many voices, including UNESCO, the World Summit on Sustainable Development and researchers are calling for the inclusion of the cultural component in the development models. Therefore, for a process of development to be sustainable, it stands to reason that the policy makers should give more importance to the promotion of cultural diversity

Download or read book Culture and Customs of Morocco written by Raphael Chijioke Njoku and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2005-12-30 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moroccan culture today is a blend of Berber, African, Arab, Jewish, and European influences in an Islamic state. Morocco's strategic position at the tip of North Africa just below Spain has brought these cultures together through the centuries. The parallels with African and Middle Eastern countries and other Muslim cultures are drawn as the major topics are discussed, yet the uniqueness of Moroccan traditions, particularly those of the indigenous Berbers, stand out. The narrative emphasizes the evolving nature of the storied subcultures. With more exposure to Western-style education and pop culture, the younger generations are gradually turning away from the strict religious observances of their elders. General readers finally have a substantive resource for information on a country most known in the United States for the Humphrey Bogart classic Casablanca, images of the souks (markets), hashish, and Berber rugs. The strong introduction surveys the people, land, government, economy, educational system, and history. Most weight is given to modern history, with French colonial rule ending in 1956 and a succession of monarchs since then. The discussion of religion and worldview illuminates the Islamic base and Jewish communities but is also notable for the discussion of Berber beliefs in spirits. In the Literature and Media chapter, the oral culture of the Berbers and the new preference for Western-style education and use of French and even English are highlights. The Moroccans are renowned as skilled artisans, and their products are enumerated in the Art and Architecture/Housing chapter, along with the intriguing descriptions of casbahs and old quarters in the major cities. Moroccans are hospitable and family oriented, which is reflected in descriptions of their cuisine and social customs. Moroccan women seem to be somewhat freer than others in Muslim countries but the chapter on Gender Roles, Marriage, and Family shows that much progress is still needed. Ceremonies and celebrations are important cultural markers that bring communities together, and a wealth of religious, national, and family rites of passage, with accompanying music and dance, round out the cultural coverage.

This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the years of 1898 and 1926, Edward Westermarck spent a total of seven years in Morocco, visiting towns and tribes in different parts of the country, meeting local people and learning about their language and culture; his findings are noted in this two-volume set, first published in 1926. Alongside extensive reference material, including Westermarckâs system of transliteration and a comprehensive list of the tribes and districts mentioned in the text, the chapters discuss such areas as the influences on and relationship between religion and magic in Morocco, the origins of beliefs and practices, curses and witchcraft. This is the first volume of two dealing with the same subject, and will fascinate any student or researcher of anthropology with an interest in the history of ritual, culture and religion in Morocco.
