Sorcery in the Song of Solomon

Book Description
J. Tyson, MA argues that The Song of Solomon is replete with references to ancient earth magick and sexual sorcery. The primary figure, the woman of the Song, is a foreign seductress, depicted as the antagonist, putting King Solomon in jeopardy. Solomon was renowned for having multiple foreign women in his court and for loosening the Israelite laws to allow them freedom to worship their own deities. With hindsight, Tyson suggests, the post-Babylonian Israelites, who were keen to have foreigners 'put away' after years of inter-marriage, wrote the Song to preserve the caveat of Solomon's experience. The Song was thus written to warn future leaders not to allow the guile of foreign women to jeopardize Israel itself. By today's standards, however, the woman of the Song becomes a fascinating case study of feminine sorcery in a context of Egyptian-Israelite monarchy.

Sorcery and Shamanism

Author: Donald Joralemon
Publisher: University of Utah Press
ISBN: 9780874806403
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 324

Book Description
The curanderos of northern Peru, traditional healing specialists who invoke Jesus Christ and the saints with a mescaline sacrament and a shamanic rattle, are not vestigial curiosities nor are their patients rural illiterates without access to "modern medicine." Instead, many of these shamans have thriving urban practices with clients from all levels of society. Sorcery and Shamanism documents the lives and rituals of twelve curanderos, offering a perspective on their curing role and shared knowledge. Authors Donald Joralemon and Douglas Sharon also consider the therapeutic experiences of over one hundred patients, including case histories and follow-ups. They offer a broad view of the shamans' work in modern Peruvian society, particularly in connection with gender-based conflicts. The significant work goes a long way toward dispelling the stereotype of shamans as enigmatic and wise, showing them to be pragmatic curers confronting the health effects of everyday aggressions and betrayals.
