En conjuguant les traditions orales et les rituels aux documents manuscrits et imprimés, Luis Nicolau Parés a rédigé une remarquable histoire des esclaves amenés au Brésil, originaores de la région où se trouvait le puissant royaume du Dahomey, dans l'actuelle République du Bénin. Ces Africains, dénommés Jeje à Bahia, constituent une identité ethnique dont la formation, pourtant connue, n'avait jamais fait l'objet de l'étude approfondie que le lecteur trouvera dans ce livre. Prmi les processus culturels qui contribuèrent à établir la nation jeje, il faut souligner la religion des vodun, les dieux dahoméens. C'est précisément l'étude du Candomblé jeje qui est au coeur de ce livre. Sa thèse la plus polémique soutient que les prêtres des vodun, outre le modèle rituel comprenant le culte de multiples divinités dans un même temple, ont fourni le modèle d'organisation de la famille de saint du Candomblé de Bahia. Cet arguement remet en question le rôle primordial des traditions nago, jusqu'alors attribué à ces aspects par la tradition orale et les études anthropologiques sur le candomblé de Bahia. Luis Nicolau Parés a reconstitué l'histoire de deux communautés religieuses jejes, de la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle à nos jours. L'ouvrage s'achève avec une ethnographie du rituel jeje qui permet d'identifier les changements survenus au fil du temps au Brésil et en Afrique. Ce livre renouvelle et enrichit ainsi l'histoire culturelle du Brésil.

Benin is now perceived of as a model of democracy in Africa because it has successfully established a democratic political system based on consensus and regular and fair elections, and it continues to improve its electoral and parliamentary systems. Since its democracy it has taken important steps towards laying the foundation for the rule of law by establishing stable political institutions that can withstand the test of time. It has also engaged in an important legal, institutional, and regulatory reform to establish a more favorable environment for private initiative. The fourth edition of Historical Dictionary of Benin covers its history through a chronology, an introductory essay, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 900 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Benin.

It would be easy to assume that, in the eighteenth century, slavery and the culture of taste--the world of politeness, manners, and aesthetics--existed as separate and unequal domains, unrelated in the spheres of social life. But to the contrary, Slavery and the Culture of Taste demonstrates that these two areas of modernity were surprisingly entwined. Ranging across Britain, the antebellum South, and the West Indies, and examining vast archives, including portraits, period paintings, personal narratives, and diaries, Simon Gikandi illustrates how the violence and ugliness of enslavement actually shaped theories of taste, notions of beauty, and practices of high culture, and how slavery's impurity informed and haunted the rarified customs of the time. Gikandi focuses on the ways that the enslavement of Africans and the profits derived from this exploitation enabled the moment of taste in European--mainly British--life, leading to a transformation of bourgeois ideas regarding freedom and selfhood. He explores how these connections played out in the immense fortunes made in the West Indies sugar colonies, supporting the lavish lives of English barons and altering the ideals that defined middle-class subjects. Discussing how the ownership of slaves turned the American planter class into a new aristocracy, Gikandi engages with the slaves' own response to the strange interplay of modern notions of freedom and the realities of bondage, and he emphasizes the aesthetic and cultural processes developed by slaves to create spaces of freedom outside the regimen of enforced labor and truncated leisure. Through a close look at the eighteenth century's many remarkable documents and artworks, Slavery and the Culture of Taste sets forth the tensions and contradictions entangling a brutal practice and the distinctions of civility.

Voodoo in Haiti is a masterwork of observation and description by one of the most distinguished anthropologists of the twentieth century. Alfred Métraux has written a rich and lasting study of the lives and rituals of the Haitian mambos and adepts, and of the history and origins of their religion. It is an accurate and engaging account of one of the most fascinating and misunderstood cultures in the world. “Métraux’s book is a landmark in the serious study of Afro-Atlantic religion. The breadth and subtlety of its approach is such that it remains an essential classic of Afro-American ethnology.”—Robert Farris Thompson, professor of art history, Yale University, author of Flash of the Spirit “This is a work deserving of wide readership, and assured of it by its understanding and appeal.”—Library Journal “This book gives what is surely the most authoritative general account of that complex of belief and practice called vaudou available in the literature....No other observer of vaudou has contributed to its study the exquisite documentation of detail that marks the work of Alfred Métraux.”—Sidney W. Mintz, professor of anthropology, Johns Hopkins University

The essays in this book constitute an analytic survey of the last two centuries of Afro-Bahian history, with a focus squarely on the difficult relationship between Afro- and Euro-Bahia and on the continual Afro-Bahian struggle to create a meaningful culture in an environment either hostile or suffocating in its ability to absorb elements of Afro-Bahian culture.
