This volume celebrates the cultural diversity of the United
States as it is articulated through ritual performance. It presents
the diverse ways in which people choose to validate and perpetuate
their cultural identity. The collection of essays invokes the state
of critical self-awareness that is increasingly enlisted in
multicultural discourse. This volume is an important addition to
the literature on ritual in America and will be useful to
anthropologists, sociologists, and researchers in social sciences
and humanities because it explores all dimensions of ritual
experience and provides new visions of American identity expressed
through formalized festive events.
