Anthologie du chamanisme Francis Huxley, Jeremy Narby
ISBN: 978-2226191090 Год издания: 2009 Издательство: Albin Michel Rassemblée par deux ethnologues internationalement reconnus, la présente anthologie est la plus complète qui soit sur le chamanisme. Les auteurs ont en effet recueilli les textes et témoignages essentiels écrits sur ceux qu'on appelait jadis "sorciers indigènes", "ministres du diable", "magiciens"... Ces écrits, dont le premier remonte à 1535, donc à la conquête espagnole, nous offrent un aperçu unique sur ces traditions longtemps persécutées qui renaissent aujourd'hui. Au cours de ces soixante-dix textes essentiels, des explorateurs inconnus côtoient Alfred Métraux, Mircea Eliade, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Georges Devereux, Carlos Castaneda et bien d'autres, retraçant cinq siècles d'études sur les chamanes, leurs pratiques, leurs pouvoirs et leur vision du monde qui passionnent nos contemporains. -
Intelligence in Nature. An Inquiry into Knowledge Jeremy Narby
ISBN: 978-1585424610 Год издания: 2006 Издательство: TarcherPerigee Язык: Английский Continuing the journey begun in his acclaimed book The Cosmic Serpent, the noted anthropologist ventures firsthand into both traditional cultures and the most up-todate discoveries of contemporary science to determine nature's secret ways of knowing.
Anthropologist Jeremy Narby has altered how we understand the Shamanic cultures and traditions that have undergone a worldwide revival in recent years. Now, in one of his most extraordinary journeys, Narby travels the globe-from the Amazon Basin to the Far East-to probe what traditional healers and pioneering researchers understand about the intelligence present in all forms of life.
Intelligence in Nature presents overwhelming illustrative evidence that independent intelligence is not unique to humanity alone. Indeed, bacteria, plants, animals, and other forms of nonhuman life display an uncanny penchant for self-deterministic decisions, patterns, and actions.
Narby presents the first in-depth anthropological study of this concept in the West. He not only uncovers a mysterious thread of intelligent behavior within the natural world but also probes the question of what humanity can learn from nature's economy and knowingness in its own search for a saner and more sustainable way of life. -
