Ils s'appellent Papa Legba, Baron Samdi, Ogou Feray, ou Ezili, ou la Grande Brigitte. Ce sont les Lwa, les esprits du vaudou, qu'on nomme encore anges, diables ou mystères. Leur société est un modèle pour les humain ; ils dictent leurs actes, les favorisent ou les punissent. Bon nombre d'entre eux sont venus de la lointaine Afrique et se sont installés en Haïti en même temps que les noirs esclaves. Et dans cette île, comme de nos jours à New York, à Miami, à Bahia, à Paris, ou toujours en Afrique, ils assurent le lien entre l'homme et la divine nature, entre les vivants et les morts, le temporel et le surnaturel. Ecrivain haïtien et sociologue des religions, Laënnec Hurbon propose ici quelques clés pour pénétrer dans l'univers du vaudou.

This anthology explores Rastafari religion, culture, and politics in Jamaica and other parts of the African diaspora. An Afro-Caribbean religious and cultural movement that sprang from the streets of Kingston, Jamaica, in the 1930s, today Rastafari has close to one million adherents. The basic message of Rastafari—the dismantling of all oppressive institutions and the liberation of humankind—even has strong appeal to non-believers who are captivated by reggae music, the lyrics, and the "immortal spirit" of its enormously popular practitioner, Bob Marley. Probing into Rastafari's still evolving belief system, political goals, and cultural expression, the contributors to this volume emphasize the importance of Africana history and the Caribbean context.

A comprehensive look at the development, beliefs, and practices of Candomblé, exploring its transformation from a secret society of slaves - hidden, persecuted, and marginalized - to a public religion that is very much part of Brazilian culture.
