Gott och ont : ett centralt begrepp hos nuu-chah-nulth på Vancouver-ön

Among the Nuu-chah-nulth on the Vancouver Island, there is a stress on faith in the Tradition as well as everyday practice of Tradition. Tradition is used among the informants in various ways, sometimes for political reasons, and sometimes for identity reason, or in a more general sense as resistance to changes and influence from the surrounding society. This article addresses the “religious” aspects of Tradition, and presents how informants perceive the world from the perspective of Tradition, especially regarding conceptualizations of good and bad. It presents their worldview in this regard in detail as well as outlines the main ritual practices connected to the perceptions of good and bad, and reflects on how nuu-chah-nulth speak about Tradition.
