  abstract = 	{In this article, van Beek discusses Dogon witchcraft and notions of evil and compares them with those of the Kapsiki from northern Cameroon. Dogon personality and self are deeply embedded in the community and kin group. For them evil is an anonymous force, originating from the bush, which precipitates a person's falling-out with the community. Evil is spread through the careless use of words and speaking ill of someone. It is seen as a poison that is ingested orally. Protective and purifying rituals involve chewing special roots and barks, drinking, taking an emetic, and exhibiting polite beahvior in rituals. Attached to this article is a 41-page bibliography on African religion.},
