About
"Collection of 12 articles on shamanism among various indigenous groups in Brazil, mainly in the northern and western Amazon. Highly useful introduction contextualizes the study of shamanism in the history of anthropology. The 'new' perspectives treat shamanism as a cosmological system, grounded in 1) a notion of cosmic energy to which shamanic power is linked; 2) a principle of transformation which characterizes a metaphoric vision of the universe; and 3) shamanic ecstasy as the basis of shamans' power"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
