"Our Lady of the Good Death: Afro-Catholicism and the Brazilian Cultural Heritage"
In this lecture, anthropologist Stephen Selka explores the rituals and practices of the Sisterhood of Our Lady of the Good Death, an Afro-Catholic lay organization in Bahia, Brazil that hosts a weeklong Feast of the Assumption. The annual celebration, which combines Catholicism with Candomblé, has grown as a symbol of Brazil's African roots heritage, attracting tourists and media.
Stephen Selka is an associate professor in American studies and religious studies at Indiana University. He is the author of "Religion and the Politics of Ethnic Identity in Bahia, Brazil," and he is working on a new book about the Sisterhood of Our Lady of the Good Death.
The lecture, held October 23, 2013 at the College of the Holy Cross, is a part of Catholics and Cultures, an initiative of the McFarland Center for Religion, Ethics and Culture at the College of the Holy Cross. Learn more: http://academics.holycross.edu/crec/c...
