Bronisław Malinowski. Auteur

127 pages. Temps de lecture estimé 1h35min.
This scholarly work explores the pioneering research of Bronisław Malinowski on the concept of "Baloma" – the spirits of the dead in the Trobriand Islands. Through meticulous ethnographic studies conducted during the early 20th century, Malinowski unveils the intricate cultural and spiritual practices of the Trobriand Islanders, shedding light on their beliefs, rituals, and societal implications surrounding the afterlife. This comprehensive examination of Malinowski's work not only serves as a historical account of early anthropological inquiry but also offers valuable insights into the indigenous worldview and the enduring influence of Baloma in the Trobriand Islanders' cultural fabric.
