I Foresee My Life: The Ritual Performance of Autobiography in an Amazonian Community

Contains a study of the ritual performances of the Kayabi, a Brazilian indigenous people, during the 1990s. Kayabi rituals are distinct in that they center on the autobiographical narratives of living people. This book discusses these autobiographical performances in the context of shamanic cures, mortuary rites, and political oratory.
