Shamanism is thriving as an exotic import and a hidden native tradition in Italy today. This ethnographical work uncovers two faces of Italian shamanism. The first is trans-cultural shamans who creatively adapt rituals and beliefs from indigenous cultures worldwide. Second, extensive fieldwork shows how regional folk magic practices of segnatoriand segnatrici constitute a little-known but enduring form of native Italian shamanism. By documenting these parallel worlds, contemporary magic workers appear to be the heirs of ancient local healing traditions. Offering rare insights into vernacular religion, this book vividly portrays shamans' past and present on the Italian peninsula.

This book explores the relationships between ancient witchcraft and its modern incarnation, and by doing so fills an important gap in the historiography. It is often noted that stories of witchcraft circulated in Greek and Latin classical texts, and that treatises dealing with witch-beliefs referenced them. Still, the role of humanistic culture and classical revival in the developing of the witch-hunts has not yet been fully researched. Marina Montesano examines Greek and Latin literature, revealing how particular features of ancient striges were carried into the Late Middle Ages, through the Renaissance and into the fifteenth century, when early Italian trials recall the myth of the strix common in ancient Latin sources and in popular memory. The final chapter also serves as a conclusion, to show how in Renaissance Italy and beyond, classical accounts of witchcraft ceased to be just stories, as they had formerly been, and were instead used to attest to the reality of witches’ powers.

A groundbreaking dive into uncovering the truth about long-accepted claims by neo-pagans and practitioners of pop-culture witchcraft that their traditions are somehow based on an imaginary "cult of witches" witnessed by a Philadelphia folklorist in Tuscany, whose roots pre-date the Christian church. Theological anthropologist and lifelong practitioner of the Italian and Afro-Sicilian esoteric and magical traditions, Franciscan contemplative, Gianmichael Salvato (Francis-Maria of the Sacred & Immaculate Hearts) exposes the problematic fallacies upon which pop-culture witchcraft stake such claims, while encouraging practitioners to hold fast to their traditions, by simply accepting that they are mid-20th century esoteric religions. Meanwhile, he shares his own family's tradition, and the tradition of thousands of other Italian and Sicilian practitioners, from the days of antiquity to a postmodern world, and talks about intersectionality with the ancient Mystery Traditions that didn't serve as the foundation or origin of witchcraft, but which relied on the skillful herbal knowledge and connection to energetic frequencies used by Sicilian and Southern Italian esoteric practitioners (particularly women) -- at first for the Great Mysteries of the ancient Greek world, and later, in continuity, for the syncretic esoteric Catholic Mysteries, especially the Great Mystery of Eternal Life. Founder of the Inner Alchemy Mystery School, Gianmichael Salvato has been teaching this insightful and controversial new way of understanding modern occultism on stage and in workshops for the past nine years. This expanded Second-Edition book, whose previous publishers refused to include the full text, is now published, for the first time, in its entirety.

"This book reconstructs the activity of the "tribunal of the faith" in the northern Italian states during the period 1400-1600, analyzing the ideology of its judges, and taking a closer look at the Italian witches and their clientele. For the first time the English-language reader will be offered direct access to this little-known world through a large selection of translated Inquisition trials from the rich State Archives of Modena." "Students of early modern culture and religion will discover how magic was employed habitually through a wide variety of composite spells and enchantments. Folklore, Catholic ritual, and books of demonic conjurations offered wizards and healers countless sources of inspiration for their practices, Readers interested in social and gender history will learn how magic and witchcraft comprised an integral part of daily life in early modern Italy. They were a means for contact and communication between diverse worlds, where wealthy aristocrats and petty shopkeepers, refined intellectuals and crafty prostitutes, rich bishops and clever priests all rubbed shoulders while attempting to improve their lot by magical means."--BOOK JACKET.

This book offers a comparison of lay and inquisitorial witchcraft prosecutions.

Kallestrup explores the narratives of witchcraft as they were laid forward by people involved in the trials.
