    Abstract: The thirteen original essays use theoretical perspectives to relate various belief systems to the indigenous social contexts in which concrete human experience is ordered and classified. The examples studied are pan-African and range from riddles through myths about the origin of death to beer-drinking rituals. The first section of the book explores different notions of being and personhood in African systems of thought; the second section explores how collective representations (images and symbols) organize and express people's experience of self, society, and nature; and the third section focuses on the dynamism of traditional systems in adapting to change. The concluding essay provides an original approach to comparing the relations between cosmology and social roles. (DÜI-Hff)
