Valutazione del libro

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The author of Nuer Religion is one of the classics of British anthropology. His interests focus primarily on the peoples of Africa inhabiting the region of Sudan. The book complements Evans-Pritchard's earlier studies on the Nuer, while also standing as an independent work that analyzes both the Nuer religion and critiques previous anthropological research on "primitive religions." The author presents his own research program on religion, moving away from the generalizations and reductions made by his predecessors. He strongly opposes reducing religion to a social phenomenon, instead highlighting the extremely important individual aspect of Nuer spirituality.
