Mystiek en magie Mystiek en magie Grote hardback met stofomslag in zeer goede staat. Fraai geillustreerd. Mystiek & magie gaat over de geschiedenis van mysteriën en bijgeloof, wonderen en wondergeloof, toverkracht en hekserij. André en Lynette Singer hebben oude en nieuwe verhalen over bovennatuurlijke fenomenen uit alle delen van de wereld bijeen gezocht en vergeleken, en zijn daarbij tevens ingegaan op de hedendaagse relevantie van de oude religies. Waarom worden in ons door wetenschap en rationaliteit beheerste tijdperk nog altijd wonderen en bovennatuurlijke verschijnselen waargenomen? Hebben moderne 'stadsmythen' voor ons dezelfde betekenis als de Odyssee en Ilias hadden voor de oude Grieken? Zijn wonderen werkelijk mogelijk? Bestaan heksen echt en heeft de middeleeuwse hekserij iets gemeen met de moderne Afrikaanse hekserij of met hedendaagse sekten in Europa en de Verenigde Staten?Mystiek & magie gaat in op de verschillende aspecten van het bovennatuurlijke en de instrumenten van goed en kwaad: goeden en godinnen, engelen en heiligen, duivels, demonen en vampieren, bijgeloof, toekomstvoorspellingen, tovenarij, geesten en necromantie, vreemde wezens en buitengewone gebeurtenissen. Met dit boek is het eerste werkelijk toegankelijke en grondig gedocumenteerde onderzoek verschenen van alles wat met het bovennatuurlijke te maken heeft.

Emotional Worlds Emotional Worlds Engelstalige paperback, in goede staat Are emotions human universals? Is the concept of emotion an invention of Western tradition? If people in other cultures live radically different emotional lives how can we ever understand them? Using vivid, often dramatic, examples from around the world, and in dialogue with current work in psychology and philosophy, Andrew Beatty develops an anthropological perspective on the affective life, showing how emotions colour experience and transform situations; how, in turn, they are shaped by culture and history. In stark contrast with accounts that depend on lab simulations, interviews, and documentary reconstruction, he takes the reader into unfamiliar cultural worlds through a 'narrative' approach to emotions in naturalistic settings, showing how emotions tell a story and belong to larger stories. Combining richly detailed reporting with a careful critique of alternative approaches, he argues for an intimate grasp of local realities that restores the heartbeat to ethnography.

This monograph is a review of the present state of knowledge of the relationships and consequences of over 25 centuries of interactions between the Amerindian and Asean Circum-Pacific regions. A fascinating, special case of previous work by two Asianists on similar themes of the Euro-Asian Continental land mass, providing the theoretical framework within which the complexities of cultural cross-pattern are studied.The subjects dicussed individually begin with the elements of recording and writing, continuing through the arts, religion, folklore and an eventual examination of the natural sciences and technology. There is also a discussion in this context of evidence from and the relevance of ethno-botany, ethno-zoology and ethno-helminthology.The underlying thesis of this volume is the relative independence and powerfully original development and evolution of Amerindian cultures and societies in Central and South America.
