Viewing these issues from anthropological and historical perspectives to the development of Islamic medicine in Morocco, this study highlights the elements of power that define these representations and practices. Mateo Dieste shows that most of the healing rituals challenge the strict division between physical and mental afflictions. Health and Ritual in Morocco provides a valuable structure for understanding Moroccan conceptions of the person, rites of passage, gender differences, and reproductive practices. It offers insights into the weight of the notions of impurity and purification of the body in the daily life of the contemporary Moroccan population.Social, Economic and Political Studies of the Middle East and Asia109.Human bodySocial aspectsMoroccoHuman bodyReligious aspectsIslamTraditional medicineMoroccoMedicineReligious aspectsIslamMoroccansHealth and hygieneMoroccansMedical careMoroccansRites and ceremoniesHuman bodySocial aspectsHuman bodyReligious aspectsIslam.Traditional medicineMedicineReligious aspectsIslam.MoroccansHealth and hygiene.MoroccansMedical care.MoroccansRites and ceremonies.306.4/610964Mateo Dieste Josep Lluís1968-1478165Beagles Martin1478166MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786309503321Health and ritual in Morocco3693806UNINA
