Describes religion of Southern Sudan's Dinka people now considered a minor classic of social anthropology. Examines the complex meanings of divine imagery and relates these to the Dinkas' experience of life and death. Gives role of priests to the translation of hymns, prayers, and myths, Lienhardt provides an unparalleled analysis and interpretation of this people and their religion.
