Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the heart of African religious beliefs, exploring their historical roots and dispelling common misconceptions. It challenges the notion that African religion is merely a collection of superstitions or a primitive form of animism. Instead, the author argues that African religion is a complex and sophisticated system of beliefs with a deep understanding of the divine. Drawing upon a rich tapestry of folklore, legends, and linguistic analysis, the book traces the origins of African religion back to ancient civilizations, including the KO] people of Bengal and the Bantu people of Central and Southern Africa. The author demonstrates that these diverse cultures share common religious beliefs and practices, suggesting a shared ancestry and a rich spiritual heritage. This book explores themes of creation, death, and the afterlife, revealing the profound ways in which African people have grappled with life's fundamental questions. It examines the concept of God as a benevolent creator and the role of ancestors as intermediaries between the living and the divine. The author also delves into the significance of rituals and ceremonies in African religious life, highlighting their role in maintaining social order and connecting individuals to their spiritual roots. By illuminating the depth and complexity of African religious beliefs, this book offers a fresh perspective on a often-misunderstood subject, revealing the enduring legacy of a vibrant and ancient spiritual tradition.

Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | In the following pages are described only those modern religious beliefs whose history can be traced back to about 4000 bc. The reader is thus enabled, from the evidence laid before him, to judge for himself the state of negro religion as it was a short while after the Flood; and if he at all Should give the subject his earnest considera tion, he must perforce come to the palpable conclusion that the modern Bantu negro has descended in the scale of civilisation, whereas his remote ancestors lived up to higher ideals which he, at least, has never attained, and for which he has showed no aspirations. It will, moreover, be readily granted that the negro's belief in the former superiority of his ante diluvian forefathers, and his faith in the divinity Of man, entitle him to a share of the world's esteem, almost in preference to those of our own age who, presuming to be wise and learned evolutionists, endeavour to trace the religious history of humanity back to a stage of bestial degradation in defiance of the best traditions of men to the contrary.…
