A Year in White

Cultural Newcomers to Lukumi and Santería in the United States

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In the Afro-Cuban Lukumi religious tradition - more commonly known as Santeria - entrants into the priesthood undergo a fifty-three-week initiation period. During this time, these novices endure a host of prohibitions, including most notably wearing exclusively white clothing. In A Year in White, sociologist C. Lynn Carr opens a window on this remarkable year-long religious transformation.
