Chasing Religion in the Caribbean: Ethnographic Journeys from Antigua to Trinidad

Autor Peter Marina Cuvânt înainte de Stephen Glazier
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 sep 2016
Focusing on ten islands through the Caribbean, this ethnography examines how charismatic religious leaders develop creative transnational religious networking strategies that help spread the movement and increase its potential to become a greater force in shaping the future in the English-speaking Caribbean. The large and explosive global Charismatic movement spread in powerful ways in the small and tranquil English-speaking Caribbean. It is here in the deep Caribbean world of demonic possessions, spiritual demons, and supernatural healers where the Charismatic movement continues to shape a resilient culture. Placing the Charismatic movement in the realm of culture provides some highly surprising findings that reveal the potential of a religious movement and its ability for change in a late-modern social world.

Recenzii

“The book to be accessible to those interested in investigation and analysis over method. … What Marina does bring is essential ethnographic insight into Pentecostalism in the English-speaking Caribbean … . He gives voice to bishops, apostles, and pastors as they articulate their challenges and successes in this under-researched region.” (Marcia Clarke, Pneuma, Vol. 39 (3), 2017)
