Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entre los siglos XIV y XVIII la magia, la hechicería y la brujería evolucionan de modo singular en todos los ámbitos de la Cristiandad europea. El miedo cunde por todas partes. Muchos están convencidos de que Dios, para castigar los pecados de los hombres, permite al Demonio actuar en el mundo por medio de sus agentes. Aquellos que, por su formación, su educación y su profesión, deberían mostrarse más sensatos son muchas veces los que más convencidos están de que el Demonio representa la mayor amenaza para la sociedad. El fenómeno conocido como caza de brujas se desarrolla entre mediados del siglo XV y mediados del XVII. Se extiende por toda Europa, pero en unas zonas más que en otras. Se dice comúnmente que España ha sido uno de los territorios menos afectados. De ser cierta esta afirmación, ¿cómo se explica que, precisamente por aquellas fechas, disponga de un aparato represivo, la Inquisición, tremendamente eficaz para combatir los delitos contra la fe católica? La brujería es uno de aquellos delitos. ¿Cómo se comprende que el Santo Oficio español, tan intransigente cuando se trataba de enjuiciar a judaizantes, moriscos, alumbrados, luteranos..., se haya mostrado indulgente para con las brujas, consideradas ellas también como reas de delitos contra la fe? En el libro de Joseph Pérez podrá encontrar el lector todas las respuestas a estos interrogantes.

Personajes que en las páginas de este libro, el autor nos lo hace revivir con mayores dimensiones en un trágico camino que en muchos casos les conducirá a la hoguera. En las montañas y en los valles sopla el viento, corren el bien y el mal en su lucha eterna, lanzan las brujas estridentes gritos deslizándose por los aires. La oscuridad se ilumina rasgando el velo del pasado en una auténtica realidad que excede de la ficción. La brujería se sienta en el banquillo. Nuestra historia comienza.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta obra propone desmitificar un tema de ayer, de hoy y de siempre, tan sugestivo, atrayente y lleno de misterio como ha sido y continúa siendo la brujería. La brujería ha sido y es uno de tantos fenómenos de tipo paranormal que ha vivido la historia de la humanidad, surgido por un cúmulo de circunstancias políticas, sociales, económicas, a las que se debe añadir las espirituales, mentales y religiosas. Desde su aparición sobre la Tierra, los seres humanos han sentido la necesidad de buscar enlaces con ese supuesto o real más allá y de contestar a las preguntas: ¿quiénes somos?, ¿de dónde venimos? y ¿a dónde vamos?, sin conseguir unas respuestas plenamente satisfactorias. Las brujas han sido, para bien o para mal, un vehículo de unión con lo desconocido. El profesor Cardona ha puesto los puntos sobre las íes sobre ellas, reflejando los cambios de mentalidad en las diversas épocas y países, llegando hasta la época presente y profundizando en la brujería española y latinoamericana y en las injustas persecuciones de que fue objeto desde mediados de la Edad Media hasta el siglo XVII. En la obra se han analizado también las misas negras y la perduración de la brujería en el continente africano, para terminar con una aproximación a las fiestas populares protagonizadas por brujas o demonios.

This book was released on 2021-10-27 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women, Witchcraft, and the Inquisition in Spain and the New World investigates the mystery and unease surrounding the issue of women called before the Inquisition in Spain and its colonial territories in the Americas, including Mexico and Cartagena de Indias. Edited by María Jesús Zamora Calvo, this collection gathers innovative scholarship that considers how the Holy Office of the Inquisition functioned as a closed, secret world defined by patriarchal hierarchy and grounded in misogynistic standards. Ten essays present portraits of women who, under accusations as diverse as witchcraft, bigamy, false beatitude, and heresy, faced the Spanish and New World Inquisitions to account for their lives. Each essay draws on the documentary record of trials, confessions, letters, diaries, and other primary materials. Focusing on individual cases of women brought before the Inquisition, the authors study their subjects’ social status, particularize their motivations, determine the characteristics of their prosecution, and deduce the reasons used to justify violence against them. With their subjection of women to imprisonment, interrogation, and judgment, these cases display at their core a specter of contempt, humiliation, silencing, and denial of feminine selfhood. The contributors include specialists in the early modern period from multiple disciplines, encompassing literature, language, translation, literary theory, history, law, iconography, and anthropology. By considering both the women themselves and the Inquisition as an institution, this collection works to uncover stories, lives, and cultural practices that for centuries have dwelled in obscurity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge History of Witchcraft is a comprehensive and interdisciplinary study of the belief in witches from antiquity to the present day, providing both an introduction to the subject of witchcraft and an overview of the on-going debates. This extensive collection covers the entire breadth of the history of witchcraft, from the witches of Ancient Greece and medieval demonology through to the victims of the witch hunts, and onwards to children’s books, horror films, and modern pagans. Drawing on the knowledge and expertise of an international team of authors, the book examines differing concepts of witchcraft that still exist in society and explains their historical, literary, religious, and anthropological origin and development, including the reflections and adaptions of this belief in art and popular culture. The volume is divided into four chronological parts, beginning with Antiquity and the Middle Ages in Part One, Early Modern witch hunts in Part Two, modern concepts of witchcraft in Part Three, and ending with an examination of witchcraft and the arts in Part Four. Each chapter offers a glimpse of a different version of the witch, introducing the reader to the diversity of witches that have existed in different contexts throughout history. Exploring a wealth of texts and case studies and offering a broad geographical scope for examining this fascinating subject, The Routledge History of Witchcraft is essential reading for students and academics interested in the history of witchcraft.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book revises what we thought we knew about one of the most famous witch hunts in European history. Between 1608 and 1614, thousands of witchcraft accusations were leveled against men, women, and children in the northern Spanish kingdom of Navarre. The Inquisition intervened quickly but incompetently, and the denunciations continued to accelerate. As the phenomenon spread, children began to play a crucial role. Not only were they reportedly victims of the witches’ harmful magic, but hundreds of them also insisted that witches were taking them to the Devil’s gatherings against their will. Presenting important archival discoveries, Lu Ann Homza restores the perspectives of illiterate, Basque-speaking individuals to the history of this shocking event and demonstrates what could happen when the Spanish Inquisition tried to take charge of a liminal space. Because the Spanish Inquisition was the body putting those accused of witchcraft on trial, modern scholars have depended upon Inquisition sources for their research. Homza’s groundbreaking book combines new readings of the Inquisitional evidence with fresh archival finds from non-Inquisitional sources, including local secular and religious courts, and from notarial and census records. Expanding our understanding of this witch hunt as well as the history of children, community norms, and legal expertise in early modern Europe, Village Infernos and Witches’ Advocates is required reading for students and scholars of the Spanish Inquisition and the history of witchcraft in early modern Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1629, Catholic priest Hernando Ruiz de Alarcón produced the Treatise on the Heathen Superstitions That Today Live among the Indians Native to This New Spain to aid the church in its abolishment of native Nahua religious practices. The bilingual Nahuatl-Spanish Treatise collected diverse incantations, or nahualtocaitl, used to conjure Mesoamerican deities for daily sustenance and medical activities. Today this work is recognized as one of the most significant firsthand records of indigenous religious practices in postconquest Mexico. Yet, as Viviana Díaz Balsera argues in Guardians of Idolatry, the selection process for the incantations recorded in the Treatise reflects two sites of agency: Ruiz de Alarcón’s desire to present the most flagrant examples of Nahua “demonic” practices, and Nahua efforts to share benign nahualtocaitl in order to preserve their preconquest traditions while negotiating with colonial Christian hegemony. Guardians of Idolatry offers readers a rare, in-depth look at the nahualtocaitl and the native cosmogonies, beliefs, and medical practices they reveal. Through close reading of four incantations—for safe travel, maguey sap harvesting, bow-and-arrow deer hunting, and divination through maize kernels—Díaz Balsera shows the nuances of a Nahua spiritual world populated by intelligent superhuman and nonhuman entities that directly responded to human appeals for intercession. She also addresses Jacinto de la Serna’s Manual for Ministers of These Indians (1656), an elaborate commentary on the Treatise. Guardians of Idolatry tells a compelling story of the robust presence of a unique form of Postclassic Mesoamerican ritual knowledge, fully operative one hundred years after the incursion of Christianity in south Central Mexico. Together, Ruiz de Alarcón’s Treatise and de la Serna’s Manual reveal the highly sophisticated language of the nahualtocaitl, and the disparate ways in which both colonizers and resilient indigenous agents contributed to the conservation of Mesoamerican epistemology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El diablo llegó a América protegido por el imaginario colectivo y el mito tradicional, pero los autores del discurso contra la magia y los propios colonizadores afirmaron que siempre había estado allí, fungiendo como señor de los naturales, proclamándose dios entre las supersticiones y las idolatrías. Así que fue necesario gestionar en la continuidad de los discursos que alertaban, aleccionaban y protegían contra un enemigo capaz de disfrazarse y adoptar formas rituales autóctonas; comenzó entonces una nueva etapa en la redacción de textos asimilados a la tradición del discurso demonológico. La atención se centró en la idolatría; el enfoque remozó su prejuicio diferenciador, y el formato recurrió al tratado, al informe, y la literatura. En el presente libro se analizan algunas muestras representativas de este proceso cultural acaecido en la época novohispana, pero detectable aún bajo las bases de nuestra idiosincrasia, a la luz de la teoría que Occidente había legado para comprender la presencia del mal y sus representantes en el mundo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rituals and Sisterhoods reveals the previously under-studied world of plebeian single women and single-female-headed households in colonial Mexican urban centers. Focusing on the lower echelons of society, Amos Megged considers why some commoner women remained single and established their own female-headed households, examining their unique discourses and self-representations from various angles. Megged analyzes these women’s life stories recorded during the Spanish Inquisition, as well as wills and bequests, petitions, parish records, and private letters that describe—in their own words—how they exercised agency in male-dominated and religious spaces. Translations of select documents and accompanying analysis illustrate the conditions in which women dissolved their marriages, remained in long-lasting extramarital cohabitations, and formed female-led households and “sisterhoods” of their own. Megged provides evidence that single women in colonial Mexico played a far more active and central role in economic systems, social organizations, cults, and political activism than has been previously thought, creating spaces for themselves in which they could initiate and maintain autonomy and values distinct from those of elite society. The institutionalization of female-headed households in mid-colonial Mexico had wide-ranging repercussions and effects on general societal values. Rituals and Sisterhoods details the particular relevance of these changes to the history of emotions, sexuality, gender concepts, perceptions of marriage, life choices, and views of honor and shame in colonial society. This book will be of significant interest to students and scholars of colonial Latin American history, the history of Early Modern Spain and Europe, and gender and women’s studies.
