Notes:	English translation by Henri Evans, Department of Modern Languages, University of Ibadan. "This work follows on 'West African Ritual and Sacred Art in Brazil' (Santos; Santos, 1967), a study completed in 1967. It is therefore, similarly, a comparative study of the religious system of the so-called Nagô in Brazil and its original elements in West Africa"--Page 16. The related 1967 work was issued under the title: West African sacred art and rituals in Brazil : a comparative study / Deoscoredes M. dos Santos (Mestre Didi). It was written with the collaboration of Juana Elbein, New York. Includes bibliographical references (page 166). In Portuguese, English (translated from the Portuguese), and Yoruba, with oracular texts in Yoruba translated into Portuguese and English.
Summary:	"I have worked on two essays. One is an anthropological attempt to place Èṣù within the whole of the culture that in Bahia we call Nagô, the Yoruba of West Africa; the other approaches Èṣù as the driving principle of individual life"--Page [7].
