Avtorica/Author
Maria Santa Montez
Izvleček
Avtorica opisuje, kako in kateri čuti so pomembni pri ritualu “Imperio” (vladar) na Azorskih otokih. Obred je povezan s čaščenjem Svetega duha, ki je poznano že od 13. stoletja. Globoko zakoreninjena ritualna praksa je posebna kolektivna vrednota v lokalnih skupnosti, posebej je pomembna priseljencem iz Združenih držav Amerike in Kanade.
