The Social Life of Spirits

The Social Life of Spirits

by Diana Espírito Santo (Editor), Ruy Blanes (Editor)

Synopsis

Spirits can be haunters, informants, possessors, and transformers of the living, but more than anything anthropologists have understood them as representations of something else - symbols that articulate facets of human experience in much the same way works of art do. This book challenges this notion.
