520 | |a "A Jesuit priest, Paul Steinmetz worked among the Oglala Lakota on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota from 1961 to 1981. During this time he prayed with the Sacred Pipe, conversed with medicine men, and observed and participated in their religious ceremonies. As a scholar of the anthropology of religion, Steinmetz describes the history, belief systems, and contemporary ceremonies of three religious groups among the Oglala Lakota at Pine Ridge: traditional Lakota religion, the Native American Church, and the Body of Christ Independent Church, a small Pentecostal group. On the basis of these descriptions, he discusses the interdynamics of Pipe, Bible, and Peyote and offers a model for understanding Oglala religious identity. In approaching the field material, Steinmetz employs a phenomenological method based on the work of Mircea Eliade and the cultural historical method of Paul Radin. He maintains that a sense of sacramentalism is essential to the understanding of Native American religions and that the mutual influence between Lakota religion and Christianity has been far more extensive than most anthropologists have suggested. Through its dozens of first-person testimonies-- an unusually rich collection of primary data about the religious beliefs of a Native American culture--the book provides the reader an opportunity to experience the religious imagination of the Oglala Lakota"--Jacket. | ||
