Demanding Deities and Reluctant Devotees: Belief and Unbelief in the Trinidadian Orisa Movement
Belief and unbelief are major categories of Western thought. Some Trinidadians do not subscribe to the power of the Orisa, while many more (Spiritual Baptists, Pentecostals, and Protestant Fundamentalists) 'recognize' and 'acknowledge' the Orisa yet do not 'believe' that Orisa should be worshipped. By contrast, few Orisa devotees question the ontological and epistemological status of Orisa, who are part of their daily lives and play a central rol…

“Beyond a Boundary”: Life, Death, and Cricket in Trinidadian Conceptions of the Afterlife
This article examines the place of life, death, and cricket in Trinidadian ideas concerning the afterlife. In his book Beyond a Boundary, C. L. R.

It also gives vivid expression to the ambivalent—and often contradictory—attitudes Trinidadians hold concerning death and dying. Despite the prevalence of some common principles an…

Person and Myth: Maurice Leenhardt in the Melanesian World
New World African Ritual: Genuine and Spurious
Following traditions established by Melville J. Herskovits and Roger Bastide, the literature on African-American religions emphasizes accommodation, acculturation, and syncretism at the level of culture, without adequate attention to the role of individual decision making in religious change. As a result, many anthropological studies stress the adaptability of religious systems but pay scant attention to the limits of religious accommodation. Usi…
