2023197681São Paulo: Editora da Universidade de São Paulo 2023. First edition. Paperback. New. 615p. photos b&w plates indices wrps. Pierre Verger learned about the cult of the orishas in Bahia where he was also a priest and collected material for comparison on several trips to Africa. In this book he analyzes the cult of the orishas and voduns in Bahia and compares it with the religious tradition of the Yoruba Nigeria and Djèdjè Dahomey where it originated. The author describes the initiation rituals the trance state the orishas and voduns and other lesser-known gods as well as about 1500 orikis transcribed into Yoruba and translated into Portuguese. Verger also relied on the vast literature of travels to West Africa whose records allow him to reconstruct in part the fascinating history of this religion that in the Americas acquired new meanings and expressions and is constantly expanding and updating. The book also includes photos by Pierre Verger that record some religious ceremonies of an initiatory nature in African lands and in Bahia. Editora da Universidade de São Paulo paperback
