Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. The study of witchcraft accusations in Europe during the period after the end of the witch trials is still in its infancy. Witches were scratched in England, swum in Germany, beaten in the Netherlands and shot in France. The continued widespread belief in witchcraft and magic in nineteenth- and twentieth-century France has received considerable academic attention. The book discusses the extent and nature of witchcraft accusations in the period and provides a general survey of the published work on the subject for an English audience. It explores the presence of magical elements in everyday life during the modern period in Spain. The book provides a general overview of vernacular magical beliefs and practices in Italy from the time of unification to the present, with particular attention to how these traditions have been studied. By functioning as mechanisms of social ethos and control, narratives of magical harm were assured a place at the very heart of rural Finnish social dynamics into the twentieth century. The book draws upon over 300 narratives recorded in rural Finland in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that provide information concerning the social relations, tensions and strategies that framed sorcery and the counter-magic employed against it. It is concerned with a special form of witchcraft that is practised only amongst Hungarians living in Transylvania.

Download or read book Justice et sorcellerie written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2006 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage, fruit d'un colloque, est unique en son genre. Des livres et des articles ont bien été publiés sur les procès intentés aujourd'hui en Afrique contre ceux qui pratiquent la sorcellerie maléfique mais aucun colloque international - c'est-à-dire une rencontre officielle et publique - n'avait encore été tenu sur le sujet. Et qui plus est au Cameroun, où ces questions ne sont traitées qu'à mots feutrés. Et dans le contexte chrétien de l'Université catholique d'Afrique centrale (UCAC). Pour que cet événement puisse avoir lieu, il fallait que la question soit à la fois brûlante - des procès par dizaines -, partagée par l'ensemble de la société et sans réponse satisfaisante. Sur quelles preuves, en effet, les magistrats pouvaient-ils se baser pour juger, à partir de la Loi moderne, de la culpabilité ou de l'innocence d'une personne accusée de pratiquer la sorcellerie, un phénomène essentiellement occulte ? Ce qu'on appelle couramment Sorcellerie fait partie, en réalité, d'un système vieux comme le monde qui comporte un versant maléfique et un versant bénéfique ou contre-sorcellerie : une stratégie que se sont donnée les hommes pour gérer avec réalisme la menace permanente du pouvoir de nuire présent en eux. La persistance des phénomènes maléfiques de sorcellerie, et même leur augmentation dans la société moderne, montrent la relative incapacité des institutions concernées - en particulier de la Justice - à proposer aux populations le moyen de régler leurs conflits par des moyens légaux. Un grand afflux d'auditeurs a fait de ces trois jours de rencontre une tribune où les conférenciers, magistrats ou universitaires pour la plupart, ont dû faire face à de vives réactions, ce qui a donné à l'ensemble un caractère imprévisible, chose rare dans un colloque international.

Download or read book The Tarot written by Mouni Sadhu and published by Aeon Books. This book was released on 2023-05-30 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ultimate book in exploring the hidden depths of magic and the Western Esoteric Tradition In his defining masterpiece, Mouni Sadhu offers the reader an encyclopaedic exploration of the Western esoteric tradition and magical philosophy with the major arcana of the Tarot as a guide. Each of the 101 lessons contained in this volume is packed with occult philosophy, symbolism, and hints for practice. (The practices themselves are elsewhere, in his books Concentration, Meditation, and Theurgy, which should be studied in that order along with this book.) Those students who want to get the most out of this volume should plan on devoting a week to each lesson, reading it several times and making sure that a thorough grasp of the important concepts has been gained. Two years devoted to this study will result in a thorough understanding of Hermetic occultism The symbolism and correspondences found in The Tarot are not the ones most familiar in occult writings in the English-speaking world. They derive from the main European tradition of modern Hermeticism, which starts with Eliphas Lévi’s groundbreaking Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic and proceeds through the works of Stanislaus de Guaita, Paul Christian, Papus (Gerard Encausse), and Oswald Wirth, among others, to Mouni Sadhu. Readers who are used to the current of Hermetic teaching set in motion by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, which lies behind most occultism in the English-speaking world, may find themselves surprised by the very different approaches Mouni Sadhu presents here and elsewhere in his works.
