Omschrijving

Polynesian Superstitions is a book written by W. H. Davenport Adams that explores the various beliefs and superstitions of the Polynesian people. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of Polynesian culture, such as their gods and goddesses, their creation myths, and their beliefs about death and the afterlife. Adams draws on a variety of sources to provide a comprehensive overview of Polynesian superstitions, including accounts from early European explorers, missionary reports, and traditional Polynesian stories and legends. He also provides insights into how these beliefs have evolved over time and how they continue to influence Polynesian culture today. Throughout the book, Adams highlights the unique and fascinating aspects of Polynesian superstitions, such as their reverence for certain animals and plants, their belief in the power of dreams and visions, and their intricate rituals and ceremonies.
