Synopsis
Experts From Reviews: "This lively account on ritual, religion, and exchange in the Tamang society of Nepal is sophisticated and well written. Holmberg draws an his informative description of Tamang Buddhism for comparativist insights into marriage exchange, caste, sacrifice, and the coherence of religious fields. The study illuminates the diversity of types of sacrifice, the interplay of spoken and written ritual languages, and the paradox of exchange that differentiates while promising to unify. Holmberg eloquently testifies to the diverse, irreducible perspectives through which Tamang men and women attempt to unify a religious field defined by shamans, Buddhist lamas, and sacrificers."
