About This Book

"This discussion of the cult of the Virgin Mary in Haiti is the fruit of one of the most extensive ethnographical studies on religion yet conducted in the Caribbean. Rey reveals the differences between the Marian devotion of the Haitian poor and that of the Haitian elite, explains the forces that shape and underlie these differences, and explores the phenomena of Marian symbols, beliefs and practices with their correspondents in Haitian Vodou."--BOOK JACKET.
