Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The Afro-Brazilian religion Candomble has long been recognized as an extraordinary resource of African tradition, values and identity among its adherents in Bahia, Brazil. Outlawed and persecuted in the late colonial and imperial period, Candomble nevertheless developed as one of the major religious expressions of the Afro-Atlantic diaspora. Drawing princially on police archives, Harding describes the development of the religion as an "alternative" space in which subjugated and enslaved blacks were able to cultivate a sense of individual and collective identity that stood in opposition to the subaltern status imposed upon them from the dominant society. Harding works creatively against the biases of the primary records, culling out evidence of a religious and cultural orientation which emphasized healing, the reconstitution of family identity, refuge and release from slavery, and the ritual address of colonial and imperial power imbalances (especially master-slave tensions).Placing Candomble within the larger context of Afro-Brazilian "alternative" spaces, Harding further examines the relationship between the religion and a variety of other black religio-cultural forms in 19th century Bahia: lay Catholic confraternities, work-groups, drum-and-dance gatherings, fugitive slave communities, families, aesthetic values and rhythmic orientations. The Afro-Brazilian religion Candomble has long been recognised as a resource of African tradition, values, and identity among its adherents in Bahia, Brazil. This book describes development of religion as an "alternative" space in which subjugated and enslaved blacks were able to cultivate a sense of individual. This item is printed on demand.
