Synopsis
Este libro se convirtió en una "biblia" para los santeros que practican esa religión, mezcla de enseñanzas católicas y de religiones africanas que evolucionaron entre los antiguos esclavos en el Caribe. Los conceptos mágicos y religiosos, las creencias y prácticas de los negros importados de África durante varios siglos de trata sin interrupción dejaron una profunda huella en Cuba. En ese ambiente de exaltación de lo negro que predominaba en la isla después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la autora emprende la tarea de ganarse la confianza de los afrocubanos, los cuales guardan celosamente el secreto de sus rituales, mitos y costumbres. Cabrera pacientemente, pues sabe que no hay otra alternativa si quiere conocer el legado de toda una raza que prefiere esconder y callar, aunque con ello se pierda todo un glorioso pasado, recoge en este libro los más importantes fundamentos antropológicos, religiosos, y culturales del legado afrocubano., This is the most important and recognized book of the many written by Lydia Cabrera on the history, customs and religious rites of Afro-Cubans.The Cuban black mixed his customs and this syncretism is essential in Cuban culture. In El Monte, the reader will find all the history and contributions of the Cuban black including religious syncretism, the uses of plants to cure diseases, the many ways of talking that are already part of the everyday language of Cubans.

    I recently purchased a Bengals Rookie sports card on eBay and was thoroughly impressed by the seamless experience. The seller's description was spot-on, the card was well-protected during shipping, and it arrived earlier than expected. The seller made navigating and purchasing a breeze. I'm beyond satisfied with my purchase and the high level of service provided. Highly recommend eBay for finding and securing the best sports card treasures!
