DESCRIPTION:Halloween can be explained according to different themes\, eac
 h with widespread cultural parallels: as a seasonal/calendrical event\; as
  a “ritual of reversal\;” as Samhain\, an ancient Celtic festival\; as
  All Hallows Eve\, a Christian observance\; as a witches’ sabbath\; as a
  modern pagan holiday\; and\, in America\, a special event for children. J
 oin us for an evening with Phil Stevens\, Ph.D. Associate Professor of A
 nthropology Emeritus University at Buffalo\, SUNY. \nPhil Stevens retired 
 in 2019 after 48 years in the Anthropology Department at the University at
  Buffalo\, State University of New York.  He received his B.A. in English
  from Yale in 1963\, then served with the Peace Corps in Nigeria for three
  years.  Those experiences brought him into anthropology\, and he and rec
 eived his Ph.D. from Northwestern University in 1973. \nHe has conducted a
 nthropological research in West Africa and the Caribbean.  He is the auth
 or of many publications in cultural anthropology and African studies. Amon
 g his honors are two awards for excellence in teaching\, and an African ch
 ieftaincy title!  One of his most popular courses at UB was on the anthro
 pology of Magic\, Sorcery\, and Witchcraft\; and his book on that topic wa
 s published in 2024 by Routledge.  He lectures frequently to community gr
 oups on subjects of current concern. \nAlthough tickets are free\, we ask
