Resumo
Opening ParagraphThis paper is concerned with an examination of the usage of a Dinka word, apeth which may be translated either as 'witch' or as 'witchcraft'. These English words, however, only roughly set the limits of its meaning, which are here more precisely indicated by a consideration of the contexts in which the Dinka use it.
