  • Fiestas and Fervor: Religious Life and Catholic Enlightenment in the Diocese of Barcelona, 1766-1775
    FIESTAS AND FERVOR: RELIGIOUS LIFE AND CATHOLIC ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE DIOCESE OF BARCELONA, 1766-1775 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrea J. Smidt, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Dale K. Van Kley, Adviser Professor N. Geoffrey Parker Professor Kenneth J. Andrien ____________________ Adviser History Graduate Program ABSTRACT The Enlightenment, or the "Age of Reason," had a profound impact on eighteenth-century Europe, especially on its religion, producing both outright atheism and powerful movements of religious reform within the Church. The former—culminating in the French Revolution—has attracted many scholars; the latter has been relatively neglected. By looking at "enlightened" attempts to reform popular religious practices in Spain, my project examines the religious fervor of people whose story usually escapes historical attention. "Fiestas and Fervor" reveals the capacity of the Enlightenment to reform the Catholicism of ordinary Spaniards, examining how enlightened or Reform Catholicism affected popular piety in the diocese of Barcelona. This study focuses on the efforts of an exceptional figure of Reform Catholicism and Enlightenment Spain—Josep Climent i Avinent, Bishop of Barcelona from 1766- 1775. The program of “Enlightenment” as sponsored by the Spanish monarchy was one that did not question the Catholic faith and that championed economic progress and the advancement of the sciences, primarily benefiting the elite of Spanish society. In this context, Climent is noteworthy not only because his idea of “Catholic Enlightenment” opposed that sponsored by the Spanish monarchy but also because his was one that implicitly condemned the present hierarchy of the Catholic Church and explicitly ii advocated popular enlightenment and the creation of a more independent “public sphere” in Spain by means of increased literacy and education of the masses.

  • A Gallery of Archetypes
    Meta Religion / Psychiatry / Analytical Psychology / (from http://www.meta-religion.com/Psychiatry/Analytical_psychology/a_gallery_of_archetypes.htm) A Gallery of Archetypes From: http://www.myss.com/ThreeArchs.asp The archetypes listed here in boldface type are just a few of the many ancient patterns that exist in human consciousness. Many additional archetypes that are closely related are mentioned in parentheses, such as Hermit (found under Mystic), Therapist (under Healer), or Pirate (under Rebel). Please read through the entire list, looking at all the archetypes in parentheses, before assuming that the one you're looking for isn't here. Naturally, it's impossible to list all the hundreds of archetypes that exist, but these are some of the most common, and include just about all that are mentioned in my book, CD, or tape of Sacred Contracts. If you feel that you have an archetype that isn't found here, please do not hesitate to give it careful consideration, and feel free to include it in your support team. Remember that all archetypes are essentially neutral and manifest in both light and shadow attributes. Accordingly, I have tried to include both sets of attributes for each listing, along with cues to help you determine whether a given archetype may be part of your lifelong support team of twelve. To help you further, I've listed some examples of each archetype as embodied in popular film, fiction, drama, and the world's religions and mythologies. In evaluating whether an archetype is part of your intimate group, pay special attention to whether you can perceive a pattern of influence throughout your history, rather than only isolated or recent incidents.

  • Vilenica and Vilenjak: Bearers of an Extinct Fairy Cult1
    Nar. umjet. 39/1, 2002, pp. 31-63, Z. Čiča, Vilenica and Vilenjak: Bearers of an Extinct... Original scientific paper Received: 17th Jan. 2002 Accepted: 29th March 2002 UDK 398.4(4)(091) ZORAN »I»A BartoliÊi 41, Zagreb VILENICA AND VILENJAK: BEARERS OF AN EXTINCT FAIRY CULT1 This article traces a popular pre-Christian fairy cult in Croatia and broader, with vilenica and vilenjak as its bearers and practitioners. The sources analyzed are historical records, sixteenth-century literary fragments, theological writings from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and nineteenth- and twentieth-century ethnographic data. The author reconstructs and examines the morphology of the cult, its influence on the learned culture (Renaissance literary works), along with the theological endeavours to alter the social reception of an apparently widespread cult and to root it out. The Roman Catholic efforts to reform popular culture as well as the historical phenomenon of witch-hunting and its consequences contributed markedly to the disappearance of the contemporary awareness of vilenicas (f) and vilenjaks (vileniks, vilovnjaks) (m) as the central personages of a rich cosmological cult similar to those practised elsewhere in Europe. Key words: vilenica, vilenjak (vilenik, vilovnjak), fairy cult, witch- -hunting, popular culture 1. It was in early August of 1660 when captain Ivan Gučetić of Janjina captaincy, the Republic of Dubrovnik, was informed of the presence of vilenicas and streghe [witches] in his district. Intrigued by the report, he decided to have one of these vilenicas summoned. Soon before him stood a young woman, aged between 25 and 30, who was to satisfy the captain's curiosity and puzzlement.

Sorcerer’s Stone familiarizes us to the hero, known as The Boy Who Lived and later, The Chosen One. Harry is the child, a naive and orphan; many tales have a child brought up by individuals who do not love him or her. Vernon is a shadow father, Aunt Petunia is a terrible mother (as is Aunt Marge), and Dudley and associates are bullies. Professor McGonegal serves as nurturing mother figure, wise woman, and unattached maiden. Dumbledore, as wise old man and mentor, always knows what is best. Rowling’s characters fit other epitomes. The Weasleys fill the role of surrogate family; Mrs. Weasley is the good mother and Mr. Weasley is the stern but loving father figure. We meet the tricksters, Fred and George, and Ron who will become the loyal companion. Ginny Weasley develops from a damsel in distress in Chamber of Secrets to a shield maiden in Order of the Phoenix. In Diagon Alley and on the Hogwarts Express, Draco Malfoy is set as a rival and bully, along with Crabbe and Goyle.

Jurić; McMaster University – Anthropology DEDICATION Tatjani Da ti razigraju maštu kao što su meni. iii Ph.D. Thesis – D. Jurić; McMaster University – Anthropology ABSTRACT This thesis presents a critical overview of a supernatural being, the South Slavic vila, as she figures in the oral traditions of Bosnian, Croatian, Montenegrin and Serbian peasants collected in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The thesis returns to the conceptual frame of older primary texts (here titled survey studies) used by comparative scholars and updates this work with the knowledge gleaned from a century of research and theory in the fields of folkloristics and historical anthropology. These materials are presented in a distributive frequency analysis model such as those often employed by the Historical-Geographic school of folklore research, but the study is built on a foundation informed by the insights of Milman Parry and Albert Lord’s researches into the diffusion of oral traditions. These traditions are further refined by focusing on the singers, storytellers and believers who used the vila in an emic manner balanced at a nexus point between artistic innovation and traditional dictates.

My supervisor, Thomas Garza, and co-supervisor, Elizabeth Richmond-Garza, were the first to show me the relevance of folklore to literary and cultural analysis. Their courses that examined the role of the vampire in nineteenth-century Britain and Russia provided me the theoretical foundation and comparative tools for conducting analyses of other folkloric figures of the same period. Thomas Garza's dedication to Russian folklore encouraged me to explore lower mythology, the folk beliefs surrounding house and nature spirits. Elizabeth Richmond-Garza demonstrated amazing patience as she helped me shape my piecemeal ideas into a cogent project and introduced me to texts that I would have otherwise overlooked. My co-advisers opened up a whole new world to me, and my life will never be the same.
