4.0 out of 5 stars From the Cover:, April 18, 2009
For the Hopi, land, religion, and life are one. For them, the practical activities of daily life are suffused with religious significance. Religious rituals, in turn, have practical ends, such as securing adequate rain, sufficient crops, good health, and long life. In this book, Loftin looks at the Hopi's timeless merging of the sacred and the profane as a student of religion. He explores twentieth-century Hopi religious history and cultural change by focusing on the interplay between Hopi myth and history, timelessness and the experience of time, continuity and change. He examines the tension between the Hopi's traditional, mythical religious orientation and the profound historical changes which the Hopi have witnessed during the past century.
