  • And Corpse-Divination in the Paris Magical Papyri (Pgm Iv 1928-2144)
    necromancy goes underground 255 NECROMANCY GOES UNDERGROUND: THE DISGUISE OF SKULL- AND CORPSE-DIVINATION IN THE PARIS MAGICAL PAPYRI (PGM IV 1928-2144) Christopher A. Faraone The practice of consulting the dead for divinatory purposes is widely practiced cross-culturally and firmly attested in the Greek world.1 Poets, for example, speak of the underworld journeys of heroes, like Odys- seus and Aeneas, to learn crucial information about the past, present or future, and elsewhere we hear about rituals of psychagogia designed to lead souls or ghosts up from the underworld for similar purposes. These are usually performed at the tomb of the dead person, as in the famous scene in Aeschylus’ Persians, or at other places where the Greeks believed there was an entrance to the underworld. Herodotus tells us, for instance, that the Corinthian tyrant Periander visited an “oracle of the dead” (nekromanteion) in Ephyra to consult his dead wife (5.92) and that Croesus, when he performed his famous comparative testing of Greek oracles, sent questions to the tombs of Amphiaraus at Oropus and Trophonius at Lebedeia (1.46.2-3). Since Herodotus is heavily dependent on Delphic informants for most of Croesus’ story, modern readers are apt to forget that there were, in fact, two oracles that correctly answered the Lydian king’s riddle: the oracle of Apollo at Delphi and that of the dead hero Amphiaraus. The popularity of such oracular hero-shrines increased steadily in Hel- lenistic and Roman times, although divination by dreams gradually seems to take center stage.2 It is clear, however, that the more personal and private forms of necromancy—especially consultations at the grave—fell into disfavor, especially with the Romans, whose poets repeatedly depict horrible 1 For a general overview of the Greek practices and discussions of the specific sites mentioned in this paragraph, see A.

Gouvin* Throughout history humans have been fascinated by the ultimate mystery of life and death. Beliefs about what lies beyond the grave are at the core of many religious prac­ tices and some magical practices as well. Magicians have long been involved with spirits, ghosts, and the dead, sometimes as trusted intermediaries between the world of the liv­ ing and the spirit realm and sometimes as mere entertainers.' The branch of magic that seeks communion with the dead is known as necromancy.2 This essay examines instances where the legal system encounters necromancy itself and other necromantic situations (i.e., interactions involving ghosts, the dead, or the spirit world).

  • The Revelation of the Corpse. Poetry, Fiction, and Magic 1
    THE REVELATION OF THE CORPSE. POETRY, FICTION, AND MAGIC 1. Necromancy, that is the evocation and questioning of a dead person in order to gain knowledge otherwise unattainable by the living, was a wide- spread practice from the remotest antiquity. It is well attested in the ancient Mesopotamian civilizations, and it also appears in the Bible, in which the best-known case is the evocation of Samuel’s soul by Saul through the agency of the witch of Endor1. In the Greek and the Roman world necromancy is already attested in Homer – the famous Nevkuia of the eleventh book of the Odyssey – and its actual practice is documented down to the end of antiquity, though a social stigma was often attached to it, especially at Rome2. Hopfner, in his great work on Egyptian revelation magic, distinguished three types of necromancy, which he terms Greek-Homeric, ‘oriental’, and mixed3. According to him, the first and the third type are documented by the literary tradition. The first is represented by the necromancies we find in Homer, Aeschylus (in the Persians), Virgil (in the sixth book of the Aeneid), Seneca (in his Oedipus), and Silius Italicus (in the thirteenth book of the Punica). The mixed type is exemplified by the three necromancies we are going to examine, found in Lucan, Apuleius, and Heliodorus, and also by those appearing in Horace (in the eighth satire of the first book), Statius (in the fourth book of the Thebaid), and by several works of Lucian’s. Finally, the purely ‘oriental’ type is represented by the Greek magical papyri found in Egypt and collected by Preisendanz, and also by the defixiones, the curses and spells preserved on engraved sheets of metal4.

  • GURPS ​Technomancer
    GURPS Technomancer ​ V 0.3 By CPU Anon Heart and Godogma On July 16, 1945, the Manhattan Project was completed. The first atomic bomb was detonated at the Trinity site in Alamogordo, New Mexico, and those words of power were spoken: “I am become Death, Destroyer of Worlds.” Combined with the explosion, which had torn a hole in spacetime, these words closed a necromantic ritual, bringing forth what is now known as the Hellstorm: a stationary tornado formed from the mushroom cloud of the explosion and shot with red lightning. The project was temporarily canceled: Japan was offered an unconditional surrender, the threat of two remaining nuclear bombs being used to encourage it, but the US refrained from making any more bombs until the Hellstorm was understood. It did not take long. People began to be born as “changelings”, humans with inhuman features, and previously non-powered beings who performed religious rituals suddenly found that their rituals began to work. ​ The world was a different place. By the time the first changelings grew up, humanity had grasped what had occurred. The ritual had brought mana back to the world, and with it, magic. One in a hundred born after the creation of the Hellstorm have an aptitude for magic, a drastic increase from the one in ten-thousand that had it before, and unlike their predecessors, these new mages were able to use their magic. ​ ​ Magic was swiftly learned, mastered, industrialized, and put to use. Healing magic swiftly overtook standard medical science, curing diseases with a gesture and a word, while industrial enchantment allowed the creation of miraculous devices that others had never imagined.

Lavado 2 The Magic of Books: A History of Medieval Magic and Literature Introduction Narrative binds people together with a common language and experience. It provides a singular manner for communication and interaction. Without this interaction, there would be no society or culture to speak of; with no way to articulate and control sounds, humans would be forced to communicate through the use of motions and gestures, deprived of the beauty and magic of language. Words can somehow capture pain, joy, beauty, awe, sadness, excitement, emotion and the very thrill that comes from being alive in a way that nothing else can. Language can inspire and influence as much as it can inflict pain and despair, making it truly the most powerful, and even magical, human resource.

And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust.1 (Isaiah 29:4) ecause it is commonly interpreted as a prophecy of the coming forth of Bthe Book of Mormon, Isaiah 29:4 is a foundational scripture within the Latter-day Saint faith.2 However, one exegetical interpretation of this passage suggests necromancy is a thematic literary element.
