Random information on the term “Rites”:
A rite of passage is a ceremony of the passage which occurs when an individual leaves one group to enter another. It involves a significant change of status in society. In cultural anthropology the term is the Anglicisation of rite de passage, a French term innovated by the ethnographer Arnold van Gennep in his work Les rites de passage, “The Rites of Passage”.[1] The term is now fully adopted into anthropology as well as into the literature and popular cultures of many modern languages.
In English, Van Gennep’s first sentence of his first chapter begins:[2]
“Each larger society contains within it several distinctly separate groupings. … In addition, all these groups break down into still smaller societies in subgroups.”
The population of a society belongs to multiple groups, some more important to the individual than others. Van Gennep uses the metaphor, “as a kind of house divided into rooms and corridors.”[3] A passage occurs when an individual leaves one group to enter another; in the metaphor, he changes rooms.
