具體描述
This 1980 book examines witchcraft beliefs and experiences in the Bocage, a rural area of western France. It also introduced a powerful theoretical attitude towards the progress of the ethnographer's enquiries, suggesting that a full knowledge of witchcraft involves being 'caught up' in it oneself. In the Bocage, being bewitched is to be 'caught' in a sequence of misfortunes. According to those who are bewitched, the culprit is someone in the neighbourhood: the witch, who can cast a spell with a word, a touch or a look, and whose 'power' comes from a book of spells inherited from an ancestor. Only a professional magician, an 'unwitcher', has any chance of breaking the succession of misfortunes which befall those who have been bewitched. He undertakes a battle of magic with the suspected witch, a battle which is eventually fatal.

佩服作者在博卡日的40個月田調，在當時的博士論文中已經有瞭新的框架。其實她談到的注重主體和對話産生巫術的問題，跟很多中國巫師的儀式活動何其相似。【反思普理查德的阿贊德人巫術研究】

评分被巫術詛咒的人類學傢；指定為被詛咒者在信與不信之間的掙紮；巫術帶來的懷疑和你死我活的互相傷害；以及詛咒者和釋咒者的身份模糊，一反普理查德和列維施特勞斯對巫術的社會功能的理解，認為巫術是一種暴力。而對人類學方法論部分的解讀堪稱經典。（我認為的）缺點是試圖將敘事碎片化，結果讀起來太太太費勁瞭。
评分慢吞吞讀瞭好久，方法論的討論很有意思，寫瞭一篇和genealogy對比來看的作業。田野本身和我在海南的經曆和發現有太多相似的地方，簡直想重新做迴巫術研究……
