Drawing on years of fieldwork in the country, Brown's novel approach builds on close readings of dazzling Abakuá altars, chalk-drawn signs, and hooded masquerades. In his art history of Abakuá altars, Brown not only traces changing styles, but also shows how they evolve through cycles of tradition and renovation. \"The light inside\" reflects the essence of the artists' creativity and experience: through adornment, altars project the powerful spirituality of Abakuá practice, an aesthetic strategy the author treats with an insider's passion and a scholar's rigor.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"DescriptSmall\"\u003eBrown then traces a \"biography\" of Abakuá objects-their shifting forms and meanings--as they participated in successive periods of Cuban cultural history. Early carnival sightings of Abakuá masquerades brought curiosity mixed with fear. Soon seen as a \"savage\" threat to the Cuban nation, the Abakuá Society was criminalized, and its \"fetishes\" were became forensic evidence from police raids. By the 1930s Abakuá objects fed the hunger of the emergent artistic avant garde, providing renewing indigenous sources for their primitivism, surrealism, and \u003ci\u003emestizaje\u003c\/i\u003e nationalism. Finally, things Abakuá became valid subjects for ethnographic study, seeing their apotheosis as icons of national folklore during the Cuban Revolution. Case studies utilize close rhetorical and visual analyses of changing representations of the Abakuá, spanning nineteenth-century arts and letters, modern ethnographic texts, museum displays, paintings, and late twentieth-century touristic kitsch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" class=\"DescriptSmall\"\u003eIn this interdisciplinary work, Brown brings together art

Focusing on the royal throne as a potent metaphor in Santería belief and practice it shows how negotiations among ideologically competing interests have shaped the religion’s symbols, rituals, and institutions from the nineteenth century to the present. Rich case studies of change in Cuba and the United States, including a New Jersey temple and South Carolina’s Oyotunji Village, reveal patterns of innovation similar to those found among rival Yoruba kingdoms in Nigeria. Throughout, the book argues for a theoretical perspective on culture as a field of potential strategies and \"usable pasts\" that actors draw upon to craft new forms and identities – a perspective that will be invaluable to all students of the African Diaspora.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAmerican Academy of Religion (AAR) Award for Excellence in the Study of Religion (Analytical-Descriptive Category), 2004.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AsheExpress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41749964751034,"sku":"","price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/7622\/5343\/products\/SanteriaEnthroned2003BookJacket.jpg?v=1661019087"},{"product_id":"the-256-odu-of-ifa-a-concise-reference-manual-in-english-paper","title":"The 256 Odu of Ifa: A Concise Reference Manual in English, paper","description":"\u003cp\u003e280 pages. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpiral bound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"DescripText\"\u003eSupremely to the point, this Ifá odu treatise (\u003cem\u003eTratado de Odun\u003c\/em\u003e) concisely presents each sign’s principal components:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"DescripText\"\u003ePrayer in Yoruba\/Lucumí\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"DescripText\"\u003ePlant (Spanish common name)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"DescripText\"\u003eEshú\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"DescripText\"\u003ewhat the sign marks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"DescripText\"\u003ewhat it brings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"DescripText\"\u003eits sayings or proverbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"DescripText\"\u003eits “commentaries” or advice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"DescripText\"\u003ehow the awó “works” the sign (ebós, paraldos, and other actions, etc.)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"DescripText\"\u003eThe Manual will be greatly appreciated by all non-Spanish speaking awós or those who have English-speaking clients and need clean and to-the-point translations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"asheexpress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42113199177914,"sku":"","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/7622\/5343\/products\/COVERSIXTOTRANSLfourthEDITIONemail_6f1fd8b2-cb12-4801-a4a4-a84d890ce6fa.jpg?v=1672258612"},{"product_id":"ajitenas-a-bilingual-compendium-of-signs-works-for-osha-palo-osain","title":"Ajitenas: A Bilingual Compendium of Signs \u0026 Works for Osha, Palo, \u0026 Osain, PAPER","description":"This is an extraordinary practical catalog of drawn and painted signs to be used with \"works\" for resolving problems, such as attraction, luck, health, and getting people out of jail.
