Suggested reading

Asad, Tahal. 1993. The Construction of Religion as an Anthropological Category, The Genealogy of Religion: Discipline and Reasons of Power in Christianity and Islam. Johns Hopkins University Press.

Brown, Karen McCarthy. 1991. Mama Lola: A Vodou Priestess in Brooklyn. Berkeley: University of California Press.

Popular and imaginative study of Haitian vodou as experienced through the everyday lives and rituals of a Brooklyn-based family. A creative portrayal of a powerful Haitian priestess, with important reflections on participant-observation.

Evans-Pritchard, E. S. 1976. Witchcraft, Oracles, and Magic among the Azande. Oxford, Clarendon Press (especially Chapter 4: The Notion of Witchcraft Explains Unfortunate Events).

This classic work by one of the founding fathers of the field examines how the Azande of Sudan interpret, and take ritual action to deal with, evil and misfortune.

Hefner, R. 1998. Multiple Modernities: Christianity, Islam and Hinduism in a Globalizing Age. Annual Review of Anthropology 27: 83–104.

Hodgson, Dorothy L. 2005. The Church of Women: Gendered Encounters between Maasai and Missionaries. Bloomington: IN: Indiana University Press.

Excellent case study that cogently demonstrates how to do anthropology in situations of religious encounter (in this study, the Maasai and Spiritan Catholic fathers in Tanzania). Her work also illustrates well how to frame a research question, methodology, and theoretical concepts and follow them all through in a thorough and engaging manner.

Lambek, Michael.Âed. 2008. A Reader in the Anthropology of Religion. Malden, MA: Blackwell, second edition.

Provides extensive resources, both classic and contemporary, on how anthropologists have investigated and interpreted religion.

Short, insightful, and never lacking in humor, this study both informs and provokes the budding anthropologist of religion.

Original, dense, and widely cited ethnography on the mountain peoples who inhabit a South Kalimantan rain forest in Indonesia that weaves together a fascinating array of topics: marginality, movement, state and regional power, globalization, shamanism, and women. A very instructive and reflexive treatment of the construction of self and Other.
