Brossura. Condition: new. Roma, 2018; br., pp. 464, ill. b/n, cm 14x22.(Civette di Venexia). Si narra che mille anni fa le streghe consigliavano alle genti di "portare le offerte alle rocce piantate nel terreno e agli alberi e alle sorgenti". In questo studio che mette a confronto linguistica, archeologia, arte e letteratura medievali, l'autrice svela tradizioni e lignaggi etimologici finora noti solo a pochi studiosi, dimostrando come gli antichi nomi poi stigmatizzati in "strega" avessero i significati di donna saggia, profetessa, divinatrice, guaritrice e sapiente. Il testo parla delle "Donne che vanno in giro la notte con la dea", sia che fosse nota come Diana, Erodiade o la "strega Holda"; di Wyrd, la tessitrice del destino; delle anziane che cantavano alle erbe; delle fate; delle politiche misogine che accesero i primi roghi; e di tutta la ricca cultura e tradizione pagana che per secoli la Chiesa ha cercato di distruggere. L'autrice compie un'operazione in cui ricuce la tela dell'antica tradizione femminile in Europa. Libro.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this compelling exploration of language, archaeology, and early medieval literature, Max Dashu illuminates hidden cultural heritages. She shows that the old ethnic names for "witch" signify 'wisewoman, ' 'prophetess, ' 'diviner, ' 'chanter, ' 'herbalist, ' and 'healer.' She fleshes out the oracular ceremonies of the Norse voelur ("staff-women"), their incantations and "sitting-out" on the land seeking vision. Archaeological finds of their ritual staffs show that many symbolize the distaff, a spinner's wand that connects with wider European themes of goddesses, fates, witches, and female power. They include Berthe Pedauque, also known as the "Swan-footed Queen," whose spinning began at the proverbial beginning of time. Veneration of the Fates persisted under many titles, as the Norns, sudice, fatas and fees, Wyrd or the Three Weird Sisters.Witches and Pagans looks at women's sacraments in early medieval Europe, a subject that has been buried deep for centuries. Women set out offering tables for the Three Sisters or the "good women," chanted over herbs, and healed children by passing them through 'elf-bores.' Spinning and weaving were ceremonial acts with divinatory or protective power, as bishops' scoldings reveal. Churchmen also railed against the Women Who Go by Night with Diana or Holda or Herodias, in shamanic flight on spirit animals. This was the foundational witch-legend that demonologists seized upon in later centuries. But witch persecution was already underway, as a chapter on the sexual politics of early medieval witch burnings documents.A thousand years ago, an Old English scribe condemned people who "bring their offerings to earth-fast stone and also to trees and to wellsprings, swa wiccan taecad--as the witches teach." This indicates that people still regarded witches as spiritual teachers, and that they performed ceremonies of reverence to Earth. Many aspects of ethnic spiritual culture survived the state conversions to Christianity: ancestor veneration, crystal balls, amulets--and witches' wands. Artists depicted Mother Earth giving her breast to serpents, animals, and children. Stories of ancestral women--the Cailleach and the Scandinavian disir --were handed down over countless generations.Gathering together forgotten strands from heathen European heritages, Witches and Pagans reweaves the ripped webs of women's culture. A compelling exploration of language, archaeology, and literature that illuminates hidden cultural heritages: women's ceremonies for the Fates; old ethnic names for 'witch' as wisewoman; the women who go by night with Diana or Holda. These forgotten heathen strands reweave the ripped webs of women's culture. Annotated; 140 pictures. This item is printed on demand.
