Beskrivelse
Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic Among the Azande er en af socialantropologiens mest bemærkelsesværdige tekster. I dette værk undersøger E. E. Evans-Pritchard trolddomstroen hos Azanade, en gruppe landbrugsfolk i det sydlige Sudan på den øvre Nil. Der er to hovedpunkter, han fremfører i værket.

Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic Among the Azande is one of social anthropology's most noted texts. In this work E. E. Evans-Pritchard examines the witchcraft beliefs of the Azanade, a group of agricultural people in southern Sudan on the upper Nile. There are two main points he makes in the work. One is that witchcraft can be seen as a safety valve, that releases potential harmful conflict into less damaging activities. The other is that it can be seen as an attempt to explain a complex alien world in a society's own terms of reference. Together these make for a practical solution that is consistent and rational.[1][2][3]
