Beginnings in Ritual Studies lays the groundwork for the
interdisciplinary study of ritual by broadening the conception of
it and articulating its connections to a wide range of cultural
activities. Accessible to scholars and students, Beginnings
addresses such fundamental issues as definitions, types, and
theories of ritual. The volume integrates field research and theory
in considering ritual's relation to religious, civil, medical, and
theatrical dimensions of culture. The first and second editions
garnered widespread praise from the scholarly community and became
a standard work in the burgeoning field of ritual studies. In this
third edition, Grimes adds a new preface and revises the
descriptive and theoretical essays that form the core of the
volume.
