Exprimer L'Inexprimable

Abstract

This article analyzes in detail Turner's early essay titled Chihamba, the White Spirit: A Ritual Drama of the Ndembu. It is argued that Turner was less fundamentally opposed to French structuralism than is often supposed. Not only has his work made a signal contribution to religious anthropology, but his contribution to aesthetic anthropology should also not be ignored.
