Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Initially founded as a colony of the American Colonization Society in 1822 and declared an independent republic in 1847, the Republic of Liberia has challenged scholars across disciplines for almost as long as it has existed. Despite its territory being the home of Indigenous peoples for centuries, Liberia was imagined as a plan to relocate people of color primarily from the United States to West Africa as settler colonists. It then became a nation dominated by its original African-American founders and their descendants, who became known as Americo-Liberians. This group has shaped the political identity, social structure, and cultural standards of Liberia well into the 20th century, creating a remarkably complex legacy that both sparked and, in some ways, survived nearly two decades of civil conflict from which the nation is still rebuilding.Met by the Love of Liberty is an exploration of this complicated history, from Liberia's transatlantic origins to its complex and conflicted present. This collection of innovative essays emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach, combining African studies, anthropology, archaeology, history, linguistics, and cultural studies to produce a unique dialogue between the history of Liberia's national founding and its diverse contemporary historical memory and create a new, multifaceted understanding of Liberia's development and contemporary moment. Bringing together essays from leading scholars on Liberia's history and culture, Met by the Love of Liberty breaks new ground for discourse on how Liberia and other similar nations and communities can be studied today, telling a story of movement, displacement, national creation, and cultural and political memory and identity.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Although shamanism has become a well-developed and expansive topic within the anthropology of Amazonia, the ethnographic literature focusing on sorcery has been sporadic and sparse by comparison. This has particularly been the case since the death of Neil L. Whitehead in 2012. However, as this volume shows, sorcery is often of great importance in the lives and cosmologies of many people in different parts of lowland South America. Across the region, it takes a variety of forms and involves a diverse range of practices. This edited volume comparatively re-examines the topic of sorcery in Amazonia with particular emphases on local ontological frameworks, issues of embodiment, and related uses of sound.It highlights ethical approaches to research concerning sorcery and discusses the ethics within local communities of sorcery practices and accusations.; Schamanismus ist in der Anthropologie Amazoniens ein ausdifferenziertes und umfangreiches Forschungsfeld. Aber nur vereinzelt beschäftigen sich ethnografische Publikationen mit magischen Praktiken. Der Sammelband zeigt die große Bedeutung von Hexerei und Magie im Leben und in der Kosmologie vieler Menschen in verschiedenen Teilen des südamerikanischen Tieflands. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt auf lokalen ontologischen Rahmenbedingungen, Fragen der Verkörperung und der damit verbundenen Verwendung von Klängen in Amazonien. Ethische Ansätze zur Erforschung von Magie werden ebenso beleuchtet wie die Ethik von magischen Praktiken und Hexerei-Anschuldigungen inner- halb lokaler Gemeinschaften.Sprachen: Englisch, Spanisch. …
