QUÉ SIGNIFICA WITCH EN INGLÉS

Brujería

Witchcraft

La brujería es el uso de facultades mágicas, más comúnmente para fines religiosos, adivinatorios o medicinales. Esto puede tomar muchas formas dependiendo del contexto cultural. La creencia en y la práctica de la magia ha estado presente desde las primeras culturas humanas y sigue teniendo un papel religioso y medicinal importante en muchas culturas de hoy. "La magia es central no sólo en las sociedades" primitivas ", sino también en las sociedades" de alta cultura "... El concepto de brujería como dañino es a menudo tratado como una ideología cultural que proporciona un chivo expiatorio a la desgracia humana. Esto fue particularmente cierto en los primeros tiempos modernos de Europa, donde la brujería llegó a ser vista como parte de una vasta conspiración diabólica de individuos ligados al Diablo socavando el cristianismo, llevando finalmente a la caza de brujas a gran escala, especialmente en la Europa Protestante. Las cacerías de brujas continúan hasta nuestros días con trágicas consecuencias. Desde mediados del siglo XX, la brujería se ha convertido en la designación de una rama del paganismo moderno. Es más notablemente practicado en las tradiciones wiccanas y de brujería, algunos de los cuales afirman practicar un resurgimiento de la espiritualidad pre-abrahámica.

Witchcraft is the use of magical faculties, most commonly for religious, divinatory or medicinal purposes. This may take many forms depending on cultural context. The belief in and the practice of magic has been present since the earliest human cultures and continues to have an important religious and medicinal role in many cultures today. "Magic is central not only in 'primitive' societies but in 'high cultural' societies as well..." The concept of witchcraft as harmful is often treated as a cultural ideology providing a scapegoat for human misfortune. This was particularly the case in the early modern period of Europe where witchcraft came to be seen as part of a vast diabolical conspiracy of individuals in league with the Devil undermining Christianity, eventually leading to large-scale witch-hunts, especially in Protestant Europe. Witch hunts continue to this day with tragic consequences. Since the mid-20th century Witchcraft has become the designation of a branch of modern paganism. It is most notably practiced in the Wiccan and witchcraft traditions, some of whom claim to practice a revival of pre-Abrahamic spirituality.
