Ritual A Book Of Primitive Rites and Events By Jerome Rothenberg Signed and dated May 19 1966
Published by A Great Bear Pamphlet 
Year: 1966

"An anthology of Polynesian, Melanesian and American Indian events and performance pieces selected and adapted by poet, translator and editor Jerome Rothenberg."
"This collection of event scores and descriptions adapted from a range of ethnographic sources also implicitly functions as an examination of the Happenings movement in an expanded historical and anthropological context. Rothenberg’s translations, along with the restriction of information on his sources in the table of contents, leave ample room for cultural and historical ambiguity, giving each event a strong foothold in the here and now. Ritual stands as a direct predecessor to the author’s profoundly ambitious anthologies of “primitive” poetry."
