Healing Cultures : Art and Religion as Curative Practices in the Caribbean and Its Diaspora Hardback
by Na Na
Hardback
Description
The Spanish expression - la cultura cura (culture heals) - is an affirmation of the potential healing power of a variety of cultural practices that together constitute the ethos of a people.
What happens, however, when cultures themselves are in jeopardy?
What are the "antidotes" or healing modalities for an ailing culture?
Healing Cultures addresses these questions from a variety of disciplines - anthropology, holistic folk traditions, literature, film, cultural and religious studies - bringing together the broad range of beliefs and the spectrum of practices that have sustained the peoples and cultures of the Caribbean.
