''The Religious System of the Amazulu'' is a book by the English missionary Henry Callaway and was published in 1870. It is one of several books he wrote about the Zulu people and their beliefs. The book is written in a question-answer format, in which Callaway questions various Zulu about topics which interested him. Generally, only the answers are given. The original publication of the book contained both the original Zulu conversations, with the English translations printed alongside. Nadine Gordimer cited extracts of the book at the beginning of the chapters of her novel The Conservationist. == Contents == The book is divided into four parts: *''Unkulunkulu'', which concerns the creator Unkulunkulu and the Zulu story of creation; *''Amatonga'', which concerns the Zulu traditions of ancestor worship; *''Izinyanga Zokubula'', which concerns the traditions of diviners among the Zulu; *and ''Abatakato'', which concerns the Zulu customs of medical magic and witchcraft. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Religious System of the Amazulu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
