Remains of Ritual, Steven M. Friedson’s second book on musical experience in African ritual, focuses on the Brekete/Gorovodu religion of the Ewe people. Friedson presents a multifaceted understanding of religious practice through a historical and ethnographic study of one of the dominant ritual sites on the southern coast of Ghana: a medicine shrine whose origins lie in the northern region of the country. Each chapter of this fascinating book considers a different aspect of ritual life, demonstrating throughout that none of them can be conceived of separately from their musicality—in the Brekete world, music functions as ritual and ritual as music. Dance and possession, chanted calls to prayer, animal sacrifice, the sounds and movements of wake keeping, the play of the drums all come under Friedson’s careful scrutiny, as does his own position and experience within this ritual-dominated society.

I'm so pleased with the beautiful Scripture-based coloring books that I have found recently and am thankful to have found this one as well.. Travel with him as he reveals the beauty of Brekete shrine worship. I made a vow early on never to sweat the small stuff, and I consider hair color well within that category - if that's the worst my kids do in their teenage years, I will count my blessings. Seeley discusses the plight of family survivors, for example, who received the remains of loved ones piecemeal over many months. Of course, being written in 1986 it deals with film cameras, but the tricky part about astrophotography is setting up the telescope and tracking techniques. McDougall's program is one of those perfect nutritional programs that is right under our noses! His health plan is plant based and starch based----that is, the good starches, such as corn, rice and potatoes. This book was very easy to understand and v
