Experiencing Ritual : A New Interpretation of African Healing PDF
by Edith Turner
Part of the Contemporary Ethnography series
Description
Experiencing Ritual is Edith Turner's account of how she sighted a spirit form while participating in the Ihamba ritual of the Ndembu.
Through her analysis, she presents a view not common in anthropological writings—the view of millions of Africans—that ritual is the harnessing of spiritual power.
