An Analysis of E.E. Evans-Pritchard's Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic Among the Azande (The Macat Library)
Book 114 of 215: The Macat LibraryLanguage: English
Published by Macat International Limited, United Kingdom, London, 2017

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The history of anthropology is, to a large extent, the history of differing modes of interpretation. As anthropologists have long known, examining, analyzing and recording cultures in the quest to understand humankind as a whole is a vastly complex task, in which nothing can be achieved without careful and incisive interpretative work. Edward Evans-Pritchards seminal 1937 Witchcraft, Oracles, and Magic Among the Azande is a model contribution to anthropologys grand interpretative project, and one whose success is based largely on its authors thinking skills. A major issue in anthropology at the time was the common assumption that the faiths and customs of other cultures appeared irrational or illogical when compared to the civilized and scientific beliefs of the western world. Evans-Pritchard sought to challenge such definitions by embedding himself within a tribal culture in Africa that of the Azande and attempting to understand their beliefs in their proper contexts. By doing so, Evans-Pritchard proved just how vital context is to interpretation. Seen within their context, he was able to show, the beliefs of the Azande were far from irrational and magic actually formed a coherent system that helped mould a functional community and society for the tribe. Evans-Pritchards efforts to clarify meaning in this way have proved hugely influential, and have played a major part in guiding later generations of anthropologists from his day to ours. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Evans-Pritchards efforts to clarify meaning in this way have proved hugely influential, and have played a major part in guiding later generations of anthropologists from his day to ours. Based on 20 months of fieldwork among the Azande people of South Sudan, Evans-Pritchard's work became the founding text in the anthropology of witchcraft. Although the book had little impact when it first appeared in 1937, its popularity grew after World War II and its influence on anthropology is still strong nearly 80 years later.
