DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Shona culture is a book which interrogates the Shona people s culture. The book traces the origin of the Shona as a people and how they became to be known as the Shona. Two polemical views of the origin of the Shona people are proffered.The book takes an Afro-centric approach in its interrogation and interpretation of the Shona culture.In order for the readers to fully understand and appreciate the Shona culture, the book has explored topics on the Shona family, the Shona traditional beliefs, the Shona marriage and the Shona rites of passage.The book has abundantly shown, through its argument, that the Shona culture has changed over a period of time, discarding things which could not be adaptable to the foreign influence while its resilient nature has helped it to continue to be relevant in the present times.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne of the inescapable truths that humanity has to grapple with is the reality of death. The manner in which we die, or the cause of our death, may differ, but death remains inevitable. We may be afraid of it or not; we may try to evade it, or not, but death still comes. Although most religions promise the possibility of another life in the hereafter, there is no scientifically verifiable evidence about the reality of that life. Despite that lack of evidence, every culture performs death rituals meticulously to prepare the spirits of its deceased for whatever form of life that may be available. Death Rituals among the Karanga of Zimbabwe: Praxis, Significance, and Changes explores the causes of sickness and death, and the praxis of pre-burial, burial, and post-burial rituals of the Karanga of Zimbabwe in an attempt to unearth their original form and significance, to identify the changes that have taken place. It also provides a brief manual for the performance of some selected Karanga death rituals.
