Encarnando a Los Espíritus En La Melanesia
En c a r n a n d o a l o s Espíritus E n l a ME l a n E s i a : l a i n n o v a c i ó n c o M o continuidad E n E l n o r t E d E va n u a t u Carlos Mondragón CENTRO DE ESTUDIOS DE ASI A Y ÁFRI ca -EL COLEGIO DE MÉXI C O Introducción: Genealogía conceptual de los ritos de paso Al inicio del siglo XX el etnólogo y folclorista francés Ar- nold Van Gennep estableció una serie de categorías ana- líticas para lo que identificó como las etapas primordiales de “transición”, o “paso” (passage), mediante las cuales los individuos inscriben su incorporación a la colectividad de la cual son miembros. En su obra más influyente, Les rites de passage, Van Gennep definió estas etapas como momentos de transformación existencial que se destacan por la cele- bración de “ritos que acompañan todo cambio de lugar, estado, posición social y edad” [Van Gennep, 1909:3].1 Entre los procesos transformativos más significativos que contemplaba Van Gennep en su estudio, estaban los nacimientos, los eventos iniciáticos, los matrimonios y las ceremonias mortuorias (mismos que se han convertido en materia habitual de los estudios sobre el ritual). En línea con las inquietudes comparativistas de su época, 1. Esta cita original y las subsecuentes en francés son traducción del autor. CARLOS MONDRAGÓN Van Gennep propuso también el carácter universal de los ritos de paso, es- tableciendo con ello su trascendencia como herramienta hermenéutica para el análisis general de las formas religiosas (entendido aquí el concepto de “forma” en su sentido durkheimiano clásico, de tipo estructural y simbólico). -

We, the Taumako Kinship Among Polynesians in the Santa Cruz Islands
WE, THE TAUMAKO KINSHIP AMONG POLYNESIANS IN THE SANTA CRUZ ISLANDS Richard Feinberg Kent State University Kent, Ohio USA [email protected] Raymond Firth’s We, The Tikopia, first published in 1936, still sets the standard for de- tailed, nuanced, sensitive ethnography. As Malinowski’s student, Firth—who died in 2002 at the age of 100—was a hard-headed functionalist, whose forte was careful exami- nation of cultural “institutions” and their effects on individuals as well as on other institutions. Suspicious of abstruse theoretical pronouncements, he presented his analy- ses in plain language and always situated them in relation to the “imponderabilia” of real people’s everyday lives. We, The Tikopia has been a foundational text for genera- tions of anthropologists, and it helped to guide my research on three Polynesian outliers over the past four decades. Since the time of Firth’s initial fieldwork, conditions in the region have changed drastically, as even the most remote communities have become en- meshed in the world market economy. In 2007-08, I studied a revival of indigenous voy- aging techniques on Taumako, a Polynesian community near Tikopia, in the southeastern Solomon Islands. I was struck by the extent to which the cash economy permeated Tau- mako life, altering the tone of kin relations in ways that would have been unimaginable on Tikopia in the 1920s—or even on Anuta, where I conducted research, in the 1970s. Here, I will examine Taumako kinship in light of the insights offered by Sir Raymond three quarters of a century ago and explore the changes to the kinship system brought about by new economic forces. -
