Q In Chapter 10, you were introduced to the anthropological study of religion. One of the first anthropologists to examine religion in Africa was Edward Evans-Pritchard in the early 1900's. You will explore what he learned about the Azande by watching the first 23 minutes of "Strange Beliefs: Sir Edward Evans-Pritchard". Instructions: When you are done watching the video, answer the following questions by referring to specific information from the video, NOT outside sources: 1. How do the Azande people featured in the film explain unfortunate events? What do they do about these events? 2. What is the concept of religion for the Azande? What types of religious practices do the Azande use? 3. Do you think that Azande beliefs are anymore or less rational than other religious beliefs like Judaism, Christianity, Islam, or Buddhism? Provide examples to the beliefs for these four (4) major world religions.
