Felicia Hughes-Freeland is Senior Lecturer in Social Anthropology
at the University of Wales Swansea. Mary M.Crain is Visiting
Professor at the Department of Social Anthropology, University of
Barcelona, Spain.
Recasting Ritual explores how ritualised action diversifies in response
to varying cultural, political and physical contexts. The contributors
look at how issues such as globalisation and technology affect ritual
performance and how minorities often utilise performances to affirm
their own identities while also speaking to outsiders.
The contributors examine the relationship between ritual meaning and
social identity through case studies drawn from the Pacific, Indonesia,
the Mediterranean, West Africa, Scandinavia and Latin America. Study
of the theoretical underpinnings of social action affirms the
independence of anthropology as a discipline distinct from cultural,
media and performance studies, according it a role in elucidating
contemporary and emergent human conditions.
This collection will be of interest to students of anthropology,
sociology, religion and performance studies.
