Handbook to Lothar Kaser's Textbook "Animism - A Cognitive
Approach." If we want to understand the animistic cognitive system
we must focus particularly on its concept of man. Access to it can
only be achieved by proceeding systematically. A basic prerequisite
for this is a knowledge of the language spoken by the people whose
culture is shaped by such an animistic system of thought.
Incidentally acquired knowledge is not enough to give the outsider,
whether missionary, teacher, doctor or nurse, the necessary
insights for operating effectively within a society governed by an
animistic cognitive framework. Why a textbook and a handbook on the
same subject? A textbook seeks to address foundational issues and
to ask general questions. A handbook on the other hand is concerned
to deal with qualitative and quantitative research. This book is
the companion volume of Lothar Kaser's textbook on Animism - A
Cognitive Approach and provides the interested researcher a tool to
guide one's own research into the cognitive aspects of a particular
dimension of animism, namely, the concept of man. Robert Badenberg,
trained at the Theological Seminary of the Liebenzell Mission.
Graduate study at the Columbia International University (M.A.).
Doctorate Degree from the University of South Africa (DTh). As
author, missionary (he worked in Africa from 1989 to 2003), and
mission ethnologist he commands much experience in this field.
