Umbanda is an urban 20th-century phenomenon, often described in the literature as Brazil¿s first ¿national¿¿or truly ¿Brazilian¿¿ religion. Early on, Umbanda was thought to bridge elitist forms of European-derived spirit mediumship and racially stigmatized Afro-Brazilian traditions. Through analysis of narratives of spirit possession and mediumship, we discover how Umbandists experience a creative dialogue between cultural norms and a cosmos that often transcends them. In Umbanda it is through the body, its senses, and its experience that the spirits become present. The fascinating life stories and narratives of a variety of practitioners are the heart of this book of the experiences that are Umbanda.
