Trance and Modernity in the Southern Caribbean: African and Hindu Popular Religions in Trinidad and Tobago
Keith E. McNeal
This comparative study of African and Hindu popular religions in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago charts the development of religion in the Caribbean by analysing the ways ecstatic forms of worship, enacted through trance performance and spirit mediumship, have adapted to capitalism and reconfigured themselves within the context of modernity.
