Описание: Psychique multitalentueux, rudit, ex-pr tre, ex-policier et finalement investigateur de ph nom ne paranormaux. Un b b m le fut abandonn dans l'escalier d'une cr che par une nuit de verglas. La bonne soeur d'origine Acadienne l'ayant recueilli fut charg e de trouver un nom cet enfant qui devra affronter seul la vie. Ainsi est n Joseph Fran ois Balthazar Landry. Mais ce b b n'avait rien d'ordinaire et rien ne laissait pr sager les aventures p rilleuses qui l'attendaient. La premi re mal diction de Balthazar tait de poss der de puissants talents psychiques qui en firent un paria dans toutes ses entreprises. Devenu pr tre, il se trouva vite travers d'une glise dont les dogmes ne pouvait expliquer et encore moins admettre l'existence de ses talents. Policier, son efficacit et son ascension fulgurante au grade de lieutenant d tective lui attira tellement d'ennemis que sa vie m me tait perp tuellement mise en danger, aussi bien par ses propres coll gues que par les chefs du crime organis pour lesquels il repr sentait une menace constante. Lorsque Balthazar allia finalement toutes ces exp riences acquises avec son talent inn pour se r inventer investigateur de ph nom nes paranormaux, presque tout changea pour lui. Son fid le ami est un anachronisme vivant. Gaspard Ferron est lui-m me un ancien policier, mais appartient cette vieille cole o les policiers devaient jadis poss der de vastes r serves de courage moral aussi bien que physique; une poque maintenant r volue. la retraite, Gaspard est encore et toujours plus goon que n'importe quel goon que l'on pourrait trouver dans les bas fonds. Id ale contrepartie de Balthazar, il est un colosse tr s terre terre qui a le coeur aussi large que ses poings, est bourr de contacts, et peut r clamer ou extorquer des faveurs une foule de gens pour procurer son "Boss" presque n'importe quoi. Expert chauffeur, tireur (avec ses lunettes), et briseur de cr nes; il tient lieu pour Balthazar de support d'artillerie, si jamais il en avait besoin. Balthazar et Gaspar plongent ensemble m thodiquement, de fa on presque routini re, dans des aventures o la r alit et les mondes parall les se confondent pour les entra ner au bord de la folie ou leur perte. La deuxi me mal diction de Balthazar est que son talent fait aussi de lui un insomniaque chronique, un homme qui peut sembler perp tuellement l thargique, et donc une proie facile. Plusieurs sont ceux qui ont eu l'occasion de regretter d'avoir commise cette erreur de jugement... Mais quelle femme voudrait partager sa vie avec un gentilhomme poli, rudit, solitaire et insomniaque, qui de surcroit vit dans deux mondes la fois? La bonne soeur Acadienne avait peut- tre fait preuve de clairvoyance en donnant cet orphelin le nom de Balthazar Landry, triste h ros de la l gende Acadienne...

Описание:
Tourists to Ouidah, a city on the coast of the Republic of Bénin, in West Africa, typically visit a few well-known sites of significance to the Vodún religion—the Python Temple, where Dangbé, the python spirit, is worshipped, and King Kpasse's sacred forest, which is the seat of the Vodún deity known as Lokò. However, other, less familiar places, such as the palace of the so-called supreme chief of Vodún in Bénin, are also rising in popularity as tourists become increasingly adventurous and as more Vodún priests and temples make themselves available to foreigners in the hopes of earning extra money. Timothy R. Landry examines the connections between local Vodún priests and spiritual seekers who travel to Bénin—some for the snapshot, others for full-fledged initiation into the religion. He argues that the ways in which the Vodún priests and tourists negotiate the transfer of confidential, sacred knowledge create its value. The more secrecy that surrounds Vodún ritual practice and material culture, the more authentic, coveted, and, consequently, expensive that knowledge becomes. Landry writes as anthropologist and initiate, having participated in hundreds of Vodún ceremonies, rituals, and festivals. Examining the role of money, the incarnation of deities, the limits of adaptation for the transnational community, and the belief in spirits, sorcery, and witchcraft, Vodún ponders the ethical implications of producing and consuming culture by local and international agents. Highlighting the ways in which racialization, power, and the legacy of colonialism affect the procurement and transmission of secret knowledge in West Africa and beyond, Landry demonstrates how, paradoxically, secrecy is critically important to Vodún's global expansion.
