Description: Title: Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy Author: Eliade, Mircea Publisher: Princeton University Press Binding: Paperback Pages: 648 Dimensions: 8.50h x 5.50w x 2.00d Product Weight: 1.45 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9780691210667 The foundational work on shamanism now available as a Princeton Classics paperback Shamanism is an essential work on the study of this mysterious and fascinating phenomenon. The founder of the modern study of the history of religion, Mircea Eliade surveys the tradition through two and a half millennia of human history, moving from the shamanic traditions of Siberia and Central Asia--where shamanism was first observed--to North and South America, Indonesia, Tibet, China, and beyond. In this authoritative survey, Eliade illuminates the magico-religious life of societies that give primacy of place to the figure of the shaman--at once magician and medicine man, healer and miracle-doer, priest, mystic, and poet. Synthesizing the approaches of psychology, sociology, and ethnology, Shamanism remains the reference book of choice for those interested in this practice. Ships Fast From The USA! Authorized Dealer
