Description

Divine Horsemen: The Living Gods of Haiti In 1953, Maya Deren published a groundbreaking study of Haitian Voudoun, a culture and spirituality that has captivated the world. This intimate and moving work, first published by Thames & Hudson, offers a unique insight into the practices and traditions of the Voudoun faith. The book includes all the original photographs and illustrations, as well as a glossary, appendices, and index. Deren's work is a primary source for understanding the culture and spirituality of Haitian Voudoun, and its inclusion of the original foreword by Joseph Campbell adds to its significance. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and practices of Voudoun, and its unique blend of anthropology, spirituality, and photography makes it a fascinating read. With its rich and detailed content, Divine Horsemen is a must-have for anyone looking to learn more about Haitian Voudoun.
