Audrey Richards (1899-1984) was a leading British anthropologist of the twentieth century and the first woman president of the Royal Anthropological Institute. Based on fieldwork conducted at a time when the discipline was dominated by male anthropologists, Chisungu: A Girl’s Initiation Ceremony Among the Bemba of Zambia is widely hailed as a classic of anthropology and African and gender studies. Underpinned by painstaking research carried out by Richards among the Bemba people in northern Zambia in the 1930s, Chisungu focuses on the initiation ceremonies for young Bemba girls. Pioneering the study of women’s rituals and challenging the prevailing theory that rites of passage served merely to transfer individuals from one status to another, Richards writes about the incredibly rich and diverse aspects of ritual that characterised Chisungu: its concern with matriliny; deference to elders; sex and reproduction; the birth of children; ideas about the continuity between past, present and future; and the centrality of emotional conflict. On a deeper level, Chisungu is a crucial work for the role it accords to the meaning of symbolism in explaining the structure of society, paving the way for much subsequent understanding of the role of symbolic meaning and kinship. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new foreword by Jessica Johnson and an introduction by Jean La Fontaine.

Nachituti’s Gift challenges conventional theories of economic development with a compelling comparative case study of inland fisheries in Zambia and Congo from pre- to postcolonial times. Neoclassical development models conjure a simple, abstract progression from wealth held in people to money or commodities; instead, Gordon argues, primary social networks and oral charters like “Nachituti’s Gift” remained decisive long after the rise of intensive trade and market activities. Interweaving oral traditions, songs, and interviews as well as extensive archival research, Gordon’s lively tale is at once a subtle analysis of economic and social transformations, an insightful exercise in environmental history, and a revealing study of comparative politics. Honorable Mention, Melville J. Herskovits Award, African Studies Association “A powerful portrayal of the complexity, fluidity, and subtlety of Lake Mweru fishers’ production strategies . . . . Natchituti’s Gift adds nuance and evidence to some of the most important and sophisticated conversations going on in African studies today.”—Kirk Arden Hoppe, International Journal of African Historical Studies “A lively and intelligent book, which offers a solid contribution to ongoing debates about the interplay of the politics of environment, history and economy.”—Joost Fontein, Africa “Well researched and referenced . . . . [Natchituti’s Gift] will be of interest to those in a wide variety of disciplines including anthropology, African Studies, history, geography, and environmental studies.”—Heidi G. Frontani, H-SAfrica

Puisé dans une importante documentation ethnographique et archéologique, également basé sur l'expérience personnelle de l'auteur in loco, cet ouvrage n'est surtout pas une manière de rapport Kinsey sur le comportement sexuel des Noirs d'Afrique. Le but est tout autre : c'est l'âme africaine, dès ses origines, que Boris de Rachewiltz a voulu pénétrer par la porte de l'éros, en tant que force primordiale dans les institutions sociales et religieuses, dans la magie et les mœurs des populations d'Afrique à différentes époques. Il vise essentiellement à préciser – en dehors des influences extérieures qu'il essaye d'identifier – le rôle joué, en fait, par la sexualité dans le cadre du rythme biologique africain. Le point de départ est d'ordre psychologique : il suffit d'examiner la « vision de la sexualité » propre aux sociétés africaines, sa permanence et ses variations dans différentes époques historiques. Les rites sexuels, pratiqués dès la préhistoire et survivant aujourd'hui dans des régions isolées, peuvent-ils nous donner l'explication des images peintes ou gravées sur les rochers, il y a des milliers et des milliers d'années ? Quelle est la valeur essentielle des initiations rituelles dans les tribus africaines et quels points communs offrent-elles avec celles de l'Egypte ancienne ? Sous quelle forme l'éros s'est-il manifesté dans le monde que l'on appelle « magique » et dans le monde des hommes ? Questions auxquelles Boris de Rachewiltz essaye de répondre dans cette réédition richement illustrée et attendue.

Ce livre explore la question alimentaire et la compréhension du rapport à la nourriture qui se donne à connaître à par tir de la sagesse des Bashi de la République Démocratique du Congo. Il montre que, dans les conceptions populaires qui se profilent dans l'imaginaire collectif autour des aliments, s'expriment en même temps bien des choses sur l'organisation de la société, les rapports avec autrui, la compréhension du monde et l'entendement des humains d'eux-mêmes. L'alimentation cesse ainsi d'être perçue comme uniquement limitée aux visées diététiques ou nutritives ; elle s'étend alors aux aspects biologiques, sociologiques, économiques, juridiques, voire philosophiques.
