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.

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

184738813Brixton Hill: For private circulation only printed by C. and J. Adlard 1847. FIRST EDITION OF THE ALLITERATIVE MORTE ARTHURE one of the great monuments of Arthurian literature and of Medieval English literature. This poem like Gawain and the Green Knight is part of the late Medieval literary movement now called the "alliterative revival". According to Larry Benson the most recent editor of this poem the Alliterative Morte Arthure "lacks the delicacy and balance of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight but the vigor of its narrative the epic sweep of its action and its coolly realistic presentation of fourteenth-century warfare lend the poem an interest of its own." EDITION LIMITED TO JUST 75 COPIES each numbered and signed by the printer of which THIS IS ONE OF ONLY 50 COPIES PRINTED ON THIN PAPER. Beautifully printed in large attractive type on fine wove paper with large margins. Frontispiece engraving by F. W. Fairholt after a manuscript miniature depicting the Round Table. Large 4to.
