Rituell rekursivitet, virtualitet og metamorfose – gjentakelsen av et eksperiment tjue år etter
Dette temanummeret undersøker ritualers generative og transformative kraft, blant annet gjennom begrepet «rituell metamorfose». Konseptet søker å videreutvikle ideer fra Victor Turners fokus på prosessualitet og liminalitet, Bruce Kapferers’ begreper om rituelle dynamikker og virtualitet og Don Handelmans’ vektlegging av rituelle hendelser, rekursivitet, autonomi og forming av form. Metamorfose innebærer radikale endringer i forholdet mellom dele…
Ritual som former livet: Åndebesettelse hjå Meru–talande folk i Arumeru, Tanzania
Denne artikkelen er basert på etnografisk materiale og langvarige feltarbeid hjå Meru–talande folk (nrwa-varwa) i Arumeru–distriktet og Arusha by i det nordlege Tanzania (1989-2020). Artikkelen følger den unge, ugifte kvinna Linda gjennom mangeårig liding grunna åndebesettelse. Åndebesettelse har ofte blitt forklart som ein strategi eller eit middel for den «perifere» – den marginaliserte kvinna – til å fremje hennar interesser i et mannsdominert…

Bodily grief work meets Christian interiority: The Meru case
This article focuses on a dramatic emotional expression of grief and explores how the traditional mourning practice-played out by Meru women, in northern Tanzania-encounters Christian interiority. The Meru have been exposed to modernization and westernization, through colonization, missionization, and later through independence, development projects and global neoliberal economy, but according to the Lutheran church, mourning women still behave l…

Aids and risk: The handling of uncertainty in northern Tanzania
Studies of sexual risk behaviour in the context of HIV/AIDS often utilize theories of risk which are predicated on the idea of the rational actor making choices, and thus operate with a strong notion of the autonomous individual. The underlying assumption is that a well-informed individual would strive to reduce risk and therefore choose not to engage in risky behaviour in sexual encounters. Drawing on longitudinal fieldwork in Arusha town and th…
