Pascal Lardellier

The Ritual Institution of Society (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book demonstrates that our daily relations, like our most recognized institutions, are based on a symbolic foundation put in place by rituals. Rituals are present at every level of society and are an expression of the sacredness of society, as much as they are an expression of the cultures and eras that communicate through them.
