罗伊·埃伦如何再现宗教习俗已经成为一个重大的理论问题。这项工作考察了30年来收集的诺鲁仪式表演的数据，比较了不同类别的事件在频率和周期方面的差异。它试图确定连续性的影响因素和后果。这种方法使人们能够把重点放在相关问题上：表演上的变化，仪式如何随着物质和社会条件的变化而变化，不同仪式类型之间的联系，这些仪式作为循环互动的方式，以及传播的保真度在多大程度上是由共同的模式或元素剧目支撑的。这本专著完成了对印度尼西亚马鲁古省Seram岛上的Nuaulu人的宗教行为的长期研究。从人种学的角度来看，这一点很重要，原因有几个：诺鲁人是塞兰族上仅存的几个万物有灵论社会之一；这些数据强调了印度尼西亚一个地区的习俗模式，在那里，迄今为止的研究更多地关注意义和象征分类；还有，因为诺鲁人生活在一个基督徒和穆斯林之间最近政治关系紧张的地区。矛盾的是，诺鲁人既夹在这两个群体之间，又与他们分开。
Roy Ellen How religious practices are reproduced has become a major theoretical issue. This work examines data on Nuaulu ritual performances collected over a 30 year period, comparing different categories of event in terms of frequency and periodicity. It seeks to identify the influencing factors and the consequences for continuity. Such an approach enables a focus on related issues: variation in performance, how rituals change in relation to material and social conditions, the connections between different ritual types, the way these interact as cycles, and the extent to which fidelity of transmission is underpinned by a common model or repertoire of elements. This monograph brings to completion a long-term study of the religious behaviour of the Nuaulu, a people of the island of Seram in the Indonesian province of Maluku. Ethnographically, it is important for several reasons: the Nuaulu are one of the few animist societies remaining on Seram; the data emphasize patterns of practices in a part of Indonesia where studies have hitherto been more concerned with meaning and symbolic classification; and because Nuaulu live in an area where recent political tension has been between Christians and Muslims. Nuaulu are, paradoxically, both caught between these two groups, and apart from them.
