A Celebration of Demons (Explorations in Anthropology)

A Celebration of Demons (Explorations in Anthropology)

by Bruce Kapferer (Author)

Synopsis

The Sinhalese exorcism rituals are perhaps the most complex and the most magnificent in performance still extant. For this second edition, the author has written a preface and introduction in which he argues that the techniques and aesthetics of healing in Sri Lanka cannot be reduced to Western psychoanalytic or psychotherapeutic terms.
