Download or read book Santeria Enthroned written by David H. Brown and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2003-10-15 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since its emergence in colonial-era Cuba, Afro-Cuban Santería (or Lucumí) has displayed a complex dynamic of continuity and change in its institutions, rituals, and iconography. In Santería Enthroned, David H. Brown combines art history, cultural anthropology, and ethnohistory to show how Africans and their descendants have developed novel forms of religious practice in the face of relentless oppression. Focusing on the royal throne as a potent metaphor in Santería belief and practice, Brown shows how negotiation among ideologically competing interests have shaped the religion's symbols, rituals, and institutions from the nineteenth century to the present. Rich case studies of change in Cuba and the United States, including a New Jersey temple and South Carolina's Oyotunji Village, reveal patterns of innovation similar to those found among rival Yoruba kingdoms in Nigeria. Throughout, Brown argues for a theoretical perspective on culture as a field of potential strategies and "usable pasts" that actors draw upon to craft new forms and identities—a perspective that will be invaluable to all students of the African Diaspora.

Book excerpt: Veronica doesn't think she's going crazy. But why can't anyone else see the mysterious blond boy who keeps popping up wherever she goes? When her best friend, Mackenna, invites her to spend the summer in Scotland, Veronica jumps at the opportunity to leave her complicated life behind for a few months. But the Scottish countryside holds other plans. Not only has the imaginary kilted boy followed her to Alloway, she and Mackenna uncover a strange set of rings and a very unnerving letter from Mackenna's great aunt--and when the girls test the instructions Aunt Gracie left behind, they find themselves transported to a land that defies explanation. Doon seems like a real-life fairy tale, complete with one prince who has eyes for Mackenna and another who looks suspiciously like the boy from Veronica's daydreams. But Doon has a dark underbelly as well. The two girls could have everything they've longed for... or they could end up breaking an enchantment and find themselves trapped in a world that has become a nightmare.

Book excerpt: The fires of worship and prayer are burning in the nations! In 1000 B.C. King David led Israel into a radical reformation and spiritual revolution when he built a throne of unceasing worship and prayer right in the governmental center of the nation. Since then thousands of groups have set out to pioneer expressions of 24-7 worship and prayer. From the underground church of Northern Iraq, to the entertainment capitol of Hollywood, CA the church is crying out night and day! What is God up to? Why this emphasis on worship and prayer? Could it be that the modern worship and prayer movement is restoration of David's Tabernacle? Enthroned will: *Explore the heart, patterns and principles of the Tabernacle of David *Delve into Biblical foundations for the night and day worship and prayer movement *Discuss the role of prayer and worship for igniting revival, and bringing in the harvest *Provoke you to a life long pursuit of the presence of God *Give practical insight and blueprints for pioneering night and day worship and prayer.
