Documents

Gathered here are a growing number of primary sources of special interest to historians of vodou – both the religious practice and the terms used to designate it.

While early editions of some of these texts are now accessible online, the intention is not only to gather reliable transcriptions of them in one place, but to enhance them with editorial introductions and notes that will make them more useful to scholars.  This project is still at an early stage, with most texts represented by raw (and still to be checked) transcriptions only at the moment.
