geheftet. Condition: Gut. 44 S. Aus der Arbeitsbibliothek von Hans-Joachim Koloss, Kurator der Afrika-Abteilung des Museums für Völkerkunde Berlin. / From the working library of Hans-Joachim Koloss, curator of the African department of the Berlin Ethnography Museum. - Bleistiftanstreichungen, minimal berieben, ansonsten tadelloser Zustand - Verfasserwidmung an Herrn Koloss auf Schmutztitel - Conclusion -- All that we have done hi this section has been to point to those areas which influence the well being of man in the Cameroonian traditional society. We dwelt more on the physical side, but we are aware that part of his well being consists in keeping in harmony with the cosmic totality. When things go well with him he knows that he is at peace, but if things go wrong, he has a complex system of divination that will help him to discover where the harmony has been broken and to restore it. This belongs to the area of appreciating Camerooonian religious beliefs. Much of what has been described is breaking down in face of Islam, Christianity and Western civilisation. Life in the urban town is not representative of the Cameroonian society as it used to be. Those who live here are rootless individuals of a modern society who have abandoned the solidarity of the village. Appreciating Cameroonian values as we have done sounds like crying over spilled milk for such values can only be qualified as 'old' and 'uncivilised'. Is the Church or our State in a position to redeem the good 'old values and to use them. -- With what can our children identify that can be said to be Cameroonian? This booklet aims at digging into our past culture to redeem those good aspects that point to our identity. If our home work is done, we will realise that Cameroon has more than one culture.
