Remaking the World: Myth, Mining, and Ritual Change Among the Duna of Papua New Guinea (Smithsonian Series in Ethnographic Inquiry) - Tapa dura
Libro 1 de 2: Smithsonian Series in Ethnographic Inquiry
Sinopsis
Drawing on both their own fieldwork from 1991 to 1999 and older written sources, Stewart and Strathern explore how the Duna have remade their rituals and associated myths in response to the outside influences of government, Christianity, and large-scale economic development, specifically mining and oil prospecting. The authors provide in-depth ethnographic materials on the Duna and present many detailed descriptions of ritual practices that have been abandoned. Remaking the World is a timely contribution to the literature on agency and the making of cultural identity by indigenous peoples facing economic, social, and political change.
