Spirits can be haunters, informants, possessors, and transformers of the living, but more than anything anthropologists have understood them as representations of something else{u2014}symbols that articulate facets of human experience in much the same way works of art do. The Social Life of Spirits challenges this notion. By stripping symbolism from the way we think about the spirit world, the contributors of this book uncover a livelier, more diverse environment of entities{u2014}with their own histories, motivations, and social interactions{u2014}providing a new understanding of spirits not as symbols, but as agents. The contributors tour the spiritual globe{u2014}the globe of nonthings{u2014}in essays on topics ranging from the Holy Ghost in southern Africa to spirits of the

Comment comprendre la célébration conjointe de Jésus-Christ et du fondateur présumé d'un ancien royaume africain ? Dans une même séquence, un prêtre catholique célèbre le rite eucharistique et un chef de culte préside à l'immolation d'un taureau dont la tête et les entrailles sont transformées en objets divins. Pour revisiter le candomblé de Bahia, un culte de possession brésilien rendu célèbre par les travaux de Roger Bastide et de Pierre Verger, il s'agit aujourd'hui de substituer aux analyses, en termes de syncrétisme ou de métissage, une anthropologie religieuse, historique et pragmatique, d'un espace-temps, l'Atlantique Sud. La traite esclavagiste s'y est développée dans le cadre idéologique de la Contre-Réforme qui a renouvelé, tant pour les négriers africains et les colons européens que pour les esclaves africains et les autochtones amérindiens, le rapport au sacré, produisant ainsi des configurations baroques de croyances.
