Résumé :

Engaging with supernatural forces was a necessity for Carolingian peasants – Christian authorities expected this and the belief in the inevitability of these acts seems to have been widely shared by contemporaries who lived in a world far beyond their control. Miracle collections show that peasants (and others) made conscious decisions about the way in which they wanted to interact with supernatural forces. In doing this, they also took into account the networks of individuals and institutions who controlled the saints’ resting places, which could provide invaluable support for those seeking h

Résumé :

Abstract This article argues that some supernatural horror fiction has religious affordance – that is, provides ideas that readers can draw upon to build their own religious outlook. In this regard, supernatural horror fiction is an important but previously overlooked part of lived religion. It also demonstrates that the afforded ideas are entwined with the supernatural experiences that the stories describe and looks at rhetorical tropes that dispose readers to believe in those experiences (at least while reading the story), and by extension to entertain the credibility of the religious ideas,

ABSTRACT Objects such as concealed shoes, dried cats, horse skulls, written charms, and witch bottles have been found in thousands of buildings in Britain and elsewhere in the world with the clear aim of protecting the occupants of the building from sources of supernatural evil. There are also an array of marks that have been made on surfaces designed to ward off evil influences. Generally speaking, these objects contain an element of breakage or death before they can be used to protect against magical forces, arguably this is also true where the surface structure is broken to make a mark.

ABSTRACT The supernatural in Wales, as in many places across the British Isles, is very topographical. Much of its landscape, features, sites, and buildings inspires and attracts the supernatural in equal measure. This article considers this relationship and the issues surrounding the historical and cultural interpretation of the supernatural in Wales through a close examination of a small, ruined cottage in the village of Pennant in Ceredigion, orCardiganshire. It was the home of Mary Davies (ca.1817–1898), or Mari Berllan Biter – a reputed witch. This article will reveal how the intricacies

Abstract The sense of supernatural agency constitutes a defining characteristic of the religious sphere of life. But what accounts for the continued cross-cultural recurrence of this psychological phenomenon over the course of human history? This paper reviews evidence indicating that the source of panhuman or universal cognitive patterns of thought and behaviour such as this lies in the common characteristics of the evolved human mind. Further, that the sense of the supernatural is constituted by a unique combination of commonly recurring cognitive processes that together give rise to a panhu

ABSTRACT The Channel Island of Jersey has an abundance of supernatural folklore, which can help foster a sense of understanding and care toward the island environment. These legends are tied deeply to the landscape in landmarks, rock formations, and placenames. Les Petits Faîtchieaux haunt the dolmens, carry round menhirs, and even relocate churches. Michel Foucault outlined the principle of heterotopias, counter-spaces which are separated, both open and closed, and create a break from everyday time.

Résumé :

This paper analyzes critiques of the supernatural by John Dewey, a celebrated American philosopher. Dewey rejected the supernatural on scientific and cosmological grounds, but his most significant critique was made on political grounds. In A Common Faith and other writings, Dewey suggests that supernaturalism erodes democracy by promoting a dualism between religion and science which depreciates the social values that religion originally promoted. Dewey’s claims are contextualized and then tested with reference to teaching supernaturalism in a university classroom. The author explains how the s

Résumé :

Abstract: One of Henri de Lubac's longest-lasting concepts in his career, "the supernatural" was part of a decades-long attempt by the French Jesuit to creatively understand how discussions on nature and grace from the Church Fathers and Scholastics shaped unfolding political and intellectual tensions within the twentieth-century Church. From the 1920s to the 1960s, de Lubac explored and debated the concept of the supernatural within leading modernist, Neo-Scholastic, and Neo-Thomist circles. I argue that this concept was greatly influenced by de Lubac's close association with French Catholic

We agree that supernatural beliefs are pervasive. However, we propose a more general account rooted in how people trace ordinary objects over time. Tracking identity involves attending to the causal history of an object, a process that may implicate hidden mechanisms. We discuss experiments in which participants exhibit the same “supernatural” beliefs when reasoning about the fates of cups and automobiles as those exhibited by Bering's participants when reasoning about spirits.

Throughout Dorothy K. Haynes's work Scotland is presented as uniquely infused with the supernatural and tied to the ballad tradition. Although Haynes published widely in the middle decades of the twentieth century, and her work was republished in two ‘best of’ collections in 1981 and 1996, her stories remain underexamined. At her best, Haynes might be thought of as Scotland's answer to Shirley Jackson; her work is characterised by a prevailing sardonic humour and matter-of-fact approach to supernatural events.

Fry's attention to the operations of white supremacist practices grounds her assertion that Black folk practices and supernatural beliefs were, in part, a response to racist efforts to exert psychological and economic control over African Americans during and after slavery.

The title character in Toni Morrison's Beloved embodies the history and memory of rape.
