Abstract:
This series of poems deals with the restoration of religious statues distributed over the Catholic churches scattered over 21 islands of the remote archipelago of Chiloé, off the coast of southern Chile. A group of art restorers worked for years repairing the damages that had occurred over centuries of exposure to the elements, to the beautiful carved wooden images of Jesus, Mary and various Catholic saints. Since there were not enough priests to serve all the scattered population of Chiloé in Colonial times, the traveling priest appointed a fiscal to represent him in each major town, as a rel

Abstract:
In this presentation we explore the relationships between human bone and the magical-religious ritual use in Northeastern Argentina and southern Paraguay; we approach this problem from the conceptualization of the santera practice as producer of popular sacred art, attending to (a) the use of bone in the carving of the imagery of San La Muerte and (b) its valuation as powerful talisman beyond having been, or not, sculpted in the form of the Saint. We intend to contribute to the description and understanding of part of the religious imagination of Northeastern Argentina and Southern Paraguay, a

Abstract:
Abstract Two common assumptions about Lydia Cabrera’s ethnographic work are that it is exclusively the result of fieldwork and that Afro-Cuban religions are based on oral tradition. Evidence is provided in this paper to show that 1) Cabrera also made use of early religious texts as a primary source, and 2) that her work has served as an influence on the texts used in modern Afro-Cuban religious practices, such as the anonymous book Manual del Santero (1990). An analysis is provided of the way in which Cabrera included vernacular written sources in her work, and how her work in turn has become

Abstract:
In Santería priesthoods, practitioners are “made” into African diaspora bodies in what is called “making santo.” These embodied epistemologies reveal not only the complex historical practices that have emerged through processes of racialization and enslavement but also how a body logic resituates the formations of diasporic feeling and sensing. I argue that practitioners’ everyday acts redefine the capacities of and for action as part of a spiritual habitus. The various rituals, works, and spiritual acts in Santería thus culminate in a different form of bodily engagement with the world, operat

Abstract:
The Cuban-born artist Ana Mendieta (1948-1985) created the Silueta Series during the 1970s and ‘80s. It consists of earth-body works in situ featuring the silhouette of the artist's body fashioned from mud, plants, rocks, gunpowder and other materials. Underlying the creation of the Silueta Series is Mendieta's belief that the elements are sentient and powerful beings. This perception is particularly strong in the Afro-Cuban religion Santeria, a creolized form of the Òrìsà tradition of the Yoruba of West Africa introduced to the Americas during the trans-Atlantic slave trade.

A travers l’interprétation des œuvres de quatre artistes cubains, cette étude entend retracer la généalogie de l’image artistique de ces entités. Participant au mouvement des avant-gardes parisiennes, Wifredo Lam (1902-1982) est le premier artiste cubain à opérer une réappropriation artistique des orichas, conférant une forme de légitimité à une culture marginalisée dans la société postcoloniale.

Abstract:
Gods, Have Merced! chronicles the struggle of Jose Merced, a Santeria priest, with the city of Euless, Texas, where he has been residing for 17 years in an effort to overrule an ordinance that bans the most critical element of his faith: animal sacrifice. As the city officials justify the ban on the basis of public health, Merced thinks he is merely a victim of selective code enforcement aimed a restricting his freedom of religion. Local and national media covered the lawsuit he filed against the City of Euless, and Merced seems ready to take the fight over animal sacrifice to the United State

This refers to the new socio-cultural situation of the 1920s–1940s and the deeply individual refraction of the ideas of the European avant-garde in Latin America. An unprecedented interest in archaic layers of culture and at the same time a modern complex language gave rise to a unique response in the work of leading Latin American composers.

Abstract This chapter elaborates on the Afro-Cuban religion Santería, which is one of the most popular religions of African origin in the Americas. It explores a Cuban example of such a “renewal” or appropriation of the African past and present in Cuban Santería. African-based religions in the Americas are more of a product of a transatlantic religious agency that actively reformed and renewed those traditions until the present day. The chapter then discusses the processes of religious globalization and transnationalization after the 1990s before considering strategies of re-Africanization in

In this mutual aid society, Camejo and Prieto organized extensive festivals, and participated in many different types of religions from Africa and Cuba, which are arguably at the root of modern-day Santería.

The primary sources, ranging from internet hoaxes and jokes to FBI memos and city ordinances, demonstrate the ways that technology, law enforcement, and laws are embroiled in the spread and enactment of religious intolerance against minority religious groups. Readers explore the “cult” stereotype and these patterns through a series of case studies, including Unificationism, Wicca, Heaven’s Gate, the Nation of Islam, and Santería.
