Abstract:

This chapter deals with one of the most common issues in world flutelore—love. Many of the flute tales found in the world have to do with sexuality and magical love powers used by men to attract and woo a woman. The chapter includes several stories and discusses the following topics: flute sound as magic for wooing the opposite sex; the irresistible magical charm of the flute from the point of view of charmed women; flute sound as individual recognition of and by the opposite sex; flutes for remembering the opposite sex; flutes that attract wild female nymphs; and the sexual power of flutes.

Abstract:

This chapter discusses tales about the protective power of flutes. Protection, as suggested by folklore/mythology, is often “magical” because it usually involves powers that are greater than normal powers. Fluteloric protection appears to be mostly magical, although some flutetales emphasize the beauty of the flute music in itself. In other words, either the flute or flute music conjures up some type of divine help to ward off danger or evil powers, or the sweet sound of the flute and its music themselves soothe the savage beast or dangerous human beings. The chapter describes four categories of protection: “magical protection,” “aesthetic protection,” “practical protection,” and “physical protection.”

Abstract:

This chapter considers the deep-rooted association of glamour with magic powers. Glamour’s bestowal of mystique on objects, people, and emotions depends on a more fundamental goal of inspiring magical thinking, an aspect of glamour that seeks to preserve the experience of enchantment in a disenchanted world. The Hollywood phenomena of star worship and iconic representation are discussed as secular religious practices that have developed in response to the changing conditions of modernity. The chapter shows how three conventional symbols of divinity—haloes, crowns, and veils—contribute to the idolization of a star and find expression in film music according to its own sonic vocabulary.

Abstract:

For centuries, people have invested shoes with supernatural powers beyond their daily functionality. Their moulding quality makes them vessels for holding emotions, containing agency, and transmitting talismanic potencies of the self, body, and socio-cultural environments and authorities. This chapter explores magical and emotional uses of shoes in three historical contexts: folk and fairy tales, saints’ relics, and deliberately concealed shoes. Supernatural shoes in tales inscribe punishments or give aid. This magical agency finds parallels in shoes associated with saints. Relic shoes transmit saints’ posthumous holiness or are material embodiments of their souls. Finally, the supernatural is explored around shoes deliberately concealed in buildings throughout the pre-modern period. The beliefs involved mirror each other in polarities between oral/literary, recording/concealing, doctrine/practice, sacred/profane, public/private, held in shoes as material cultural vessels. The physical shoe is linked to the power of the sacralized supernatural shoe as elevated, evoking wonder and awe.

Abstract:

What did magic mean to the people of ancient Greece and Rome? How did Greeks and Romans not only imagine what magic could do, but also use it to try to influence the world around them? This book provides the most comprehensive account of the varieties of phenomena labeled as magic in classical antiquity. Exploring why certain practices, images, and ideas were labeled as “magic” and set apart from “normal” kinds of practices, the book gives insight into the shifting ideas of religion and the divine in the ancient past and in the later Western tradition. Using fresh approaches to the history of religions and the social contexts in which magic was exercised, the book delves into the archaeological record and classical literary traditions to examine images of witches, ghosts, and demons as well as the fantastic powers of metamorphosis, erotic attraction, and reversals of nature, such as the famous trick of drawing down the moon. From prayer and divination to astrology and alchemy, the book journeys through all manner of ancient magical rituals and paraphernalia. It considers the ways in which the Greco-Roman discourse of magic was formed amid the cultures of the ancient Mediterranean, including Egypt and the Near East.
