African traditional religion encompasses a variety of non-dogmatic, spiritual practices followed by millions around the world. In an expanded second edition, this book examines the nature of African traditional religion and describes common attributes of tribal beliefs, with an emphasis on West Africa.
"The religious experiences of black people throughout the Americas are also covered. The author finds cosmology, symbolism and rituals of Yoruba culture to be the fundamental bases of African traditional religion, and draws similarities between the oral and written literature of West Africans and that of New World practitioners. The influence of Islam and Christianity is also discussed"--Provided by publisher.
