Ritual Cosmos
In the West we are accustomed to think of religion as centered in the personal quest for salvation or the longing for unchanging Being. Perhaps this is why we have found it so difficult to understand the religions of Africa. These religions are oriented to very different goals: fecundity, prosperity, health, social harmony. These seemingly trivial and specific goals are not the expressions of inauthentic or undeveloped religion, as we tend to thi…
Action as the Way of Transcendence
There are a few really basic works in the field of African religions which have the power to alter permanently our understanding of the subject, works whose insights have provided unexpected new ways of seizing African realities.

On the Nature of the Demonic
The problem of witchcraft has been generally treated as peripheral to phenomenological study of religion. Indeed, it has often been explicitly excluded from serious consideration as mere magic without genuine expressive content. It is aim of this essay to demonstrate expressiveness of witchcraft practices, and to show that they not only are directly related to realities of religious life, but that they disclose new meanings and aspects in those r…
