Between the years of 1898 and 1926, Edward Westermarck spent a
total of seven years in Morocco, visiting towns and tribes in
different parts of the country, meeting local people and learning
about their language and culture; his findings are noted in this
two-volume set, first published in 1926. Alongside extensive
reference material, including Westermarck's system of
transliteration and a comprehensive list of the tribes and
districts mentioned in the text, the chapters discuss such areas as
the influences on and relationship between religion and magic in
Morocco, the origins of beliefs and practices, curses and
witchcraft. This is the first volume of two dealing with the same
subject, and will fascinate any student or researcher of
anthropology with an interest in the history of ritual, culture and
religion in Morocco.
