La muerte, en la cultura occidental, es objeto de comentarios avergonzados y comprensiones tácitas, en unos casos, o de una violencia orgiástica, en otros. En nuestra sociedad, tan amiga de la fotografía, la última escena del álbum familiar, el entierro, siempre falta. Al parecer, la muerte nos anonada y somos incapaces de comprender su universalidad. En cambio, los torajan, una tribu de Indonesia, utilizan a sus muertos a modo de cómodos estantes para guardar sus casetes. Nigel Barley, al explorar con ingenio y una visión muy personal la sorprendente variedad de maneras en que diferentes culturas responden a la muerte y le dan sentido, nos guía por campos tan diversos como los mitos relacionados con la muerte, las creencias acerca de los duelos, los banquetes funerarios llenos de alegría, los vídeos de las autopsias, el canibalismo, la caza de cabezas y los ritos mortuorios de la realeza. Bailando sobre la tumba, que no es un libro morboso, sino que ofrece una profunda fuente de inspiración, nos da una fascinante muestra de la diversidad de las reacciones humanas ante el problema de la muerte.

Seeking to merge the information of theologians and anthropologists, this book looks at the variety of ways in which cultures around the world deal with death and give it meaning. In some cultures, most famously Ancient Egypt, families would virtually financially ruin themselves in order to deal with the death of just one person. Other cultures such as the nomadic peoples of southern Africa, simply pull down the roof of their dwelling onto the body and move on, while the wrapped bodies in Torajan (Indonesian) houses are used as shelves. The reader is guided through such diverse areas as myths about death, belief about ways to mourn, joking at funerals, post-mortem videos, cannibalism, headhunting and royal mortuary ritual.

When British anthropologist Nigel Barley set up home among the Dowayo people in northern Cameroon, he knew how fieldwork should be conducted. Unfortunately, nobody had told the Dowayo. His compulsive, witty account of first fieldwork offers a wonderfully inspiring introduction to the real life of a cultural anthropologist doing research in a Third World area. Both touching and hilarious, Barley’s unconventional story—in which he survived boredom, hostility, disaster, and illness—addresses many critical issues in anthropology and in fieldwork.

Nigel Barley travels to Sulawesi in Indonesia to live among the Torajan people, known for their spectacular buildings and elaborate ancestor cults. At last he is following his own advice to students, to do their anthropological fieldwork 'somewhere where the inhabitants are beautiful, friendly, where you would like the food.' Barley explores the island on horseback and in buses jammed to the gunnels, and meets priests faithful to the old animist rituals. With his customary wit, he takes the reader deep into this complex but adaptable society. Reversing the habitual patterns of anthropology, Barley then invites four Torajan carvers to London to build a traditional rice barn at the Museum of Mankind. The observer becomes the observed. Now, it is Barley's turn to explain the absurdities of an English city to his bemused guests, in a glorious finale to a trilogy of anthropological journeys that began with The Innocent Anthropologist and continued with A Plague of Caterpillars (both published by Eland). A postscript, penned thirty years after these adventures had been concluded, confirms the rich arc of this story-line of role reversals.
