Gender Rituals: Female Initiation in Melanesia Paperback - 1995
by Nancy Lutkehaus (Editor); Paul Roscoe (Editor)
First line
One of the primary insights to emerge from the anthropological study of initiation in Papua New Guinea, and Melanesia in general, over the past decade or so has been an awareness of the complex, multidimensional nature of these rites (e.g. Keesing 1982; Strathern 1988; Whitehead 1986), and the comprehension that a single initiatory rite or set of rites may "do" several things at once (see Roscoe's conclusion to this volume).
