Global Perspectives on the Liminality of the Supernatural - From Animus to Zombi (Hardcover)

Taking a broad interpretation of "supernatural" to include anything beyond nature, Global Perspectives on the Liminality of the Supernatural examines the liminality of often-overlooked types of supernatural beings in light of the themes of death and gender. It gives the reader a tour of the continents and takes them out into space, looking at popular culture and mythologies to propose answers to fundamental anthropological questions about humanity, the concept of "dead," and how we relate to our own genders when using the supernatural to understand them.
