Written by one of France's most brilliant and creative anthropologists, The African Religions of Brazil is regarded as a classic in AfroAmerican studies. First published in France in 1960, the book represents a singular effort to develop a theory of the interpenetrations of African, European, Christian, and nonChristian cultures in Brazil from colonial times to the present. Addressing a remarkable range of topics from mysticism and syncretism to the problems of collective memory, from the history of slavery in Brazil to worldwide race relations the work is shaped by the author's rich and original conceptual framework. The result is a compelling study of the origins and growth of a native religious environment.The English translation is supplemented with a biographical foreword by Richard Price and a thematic introduction by Brazilian sociologist Duglas T. Monteiro.
