Synopsis
Unlike many anthropological studies, The Art and Politics of Wana Shamanship is well-balanced and explores art, politics and shamanship in equal depth. It is an investigation of the practices of the Wana tribe in Sulawesi, Indonesia, and records their shamanistic rituals and culutre in great detail; it incorporates songs, chants and spells, and adequate analysis of the historical and social circumstances in which these are recited.
