Editor's Note:
Charles Wooding omschrijft Winti als een Afro-Amerikaanse godsdienst die zich concentreert op het geloof in gepersonifieerde bovennatuurlijke wezens, die van een mens bezit kunnen nemen en zijn bewustzijn uitschakelen, waarna zij verleden, heden en toekomst kunnen openbaren en ziekten van bovennatuurlijke aard kunnen veroorzaken en genezen. Naast een uitvoerig historisch onderzoek naar de herkomst van de Afrikaanse elementen, geeft Charles Wooding in dit boek een systematisch beeld van de religieuze voorstellingen en de belangrijkste rituelen. Ook bevat het een zeer uitgebreide woordenlijst met specifieke Winti-woorden en de uitleg van de liederen die bij de Winti-pré's gezongen worden. Met deze studie heeft hij bewezen dat Winti geen afgoderij is, maar een godsdienst met een duidelijke Afrikaanse oorsprong, waarin veel positieve elementen aanwezig zijn, zoals de hoge moraal, de groepsgebondenheid en het ontladen van psychische spanningen tijdens riten die de dagelijkse problemen verlichten.Dit proefschrift is in de loop der jaren een standaardwerk geworden voor alle geïnteresseerden in Winti. Het leent zich ook goed als aanvulling op de standaardliteratuur die in de opleiding en de dagelijkse praktijk van de reguliere Nederlandse en Surinaamse geestelijke gezondheidszorg wordt gebruikt. Nederland is een multiculturele samenleving. Deze verscheidenheid aan culturen vind je ook binnen de muren van de psychiatrie. Dat elke bevolkingsgroep bij zijn migratie zijn cultuur met zich mee brengt, is ook te zien in de ziektebeleving, ziektepresentatie en de wijze van behandeling. Voor veel Afro-Surinamers maakt Winti deel uit van hun cultuur. Onder Afro-Surinamers die kampen met psychische en psychiatrische aandoeningen speelt Winti een grote rol, niet alleen als religie maar ook als geneeswijze.Charles J. Wooding was de eerste Creool die Winti wetenschappelijk verklaarde. Hij werd in 1932 in Paramaribo geboren en was enkele jaren werkzaam in het onderwijs. In 1962 kwam hij als hoofdonderwijzer naar Nederland en na het behalen van een colloquium doctum ging hij Sociale Wetenschappen studeren aan de Rijksuniversiteit in Leiden. In 1967 voltooide hij zijn doctoraalstudie in de Sociologie der Niet-Westerse Volken en daarna maakte hij voor zijn proefschrift een diepgaande studie van de West-Afrikaanse maatschappijen om de Afrikaanse zeden en gewoonten in de Creoolse bevolkinggroep beter kunnen analyseren. In 1972 promoveerde hij aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam. Hij is in 2007 overleden.
