Download A Macat Analysis of Edward E. Evans-Pritchard's Witchcraft, Oracles, and Magic Among the Azande AudioBook Free
Social anthropologist Edward Evans-Pritchard composed Witchcraft, Oracles, and Magic Among the list of Azande after 20 months' fieldwork with the Azande folks of the South Sudan. It became the founding word in the anthropology of witchcraft, and has been hailed as a vintage. Although Witchcraft got little impact when it first made an appearance in 1937, its recognition grew after World Battle II. Alongside his subsequent focus on the Nuer people, Witchcraft founded Evans-Pritchard's reputation as one of the main British isles anthropologists of the 20th hundred years. His session as teacher at the University of Oxford was essential to the rise of its prestigious anthropology department. Witchcraft's impact on anthropology continues to be strong nearly 80 years later. It wholeheartedly supported an emerging opinion in the importance of first-person fieldwork, permanently closing the library-bound anthropology favored by previous generations. Most importantly, Witchcraft changed the anthropology of knowledge by insisting that the supernatural beliefs of "primitive" societies fulfilled both a cultural and a moral function.
