QUE SIGNIFIE WITCH EN ANGLAIS

La sorcellerie

Witchcraft

La sorcellerie est l'utilisation de facultés magiques, le plus souvent à des fins religieuses, divinatoires ou médicinales. Cela peut prendre plusieurs formes selon le contexte culturel. La croyance et la pratique de la magie ont été présentes depuis les premières cultures humaines et continuent d'avoir un important rôle religieux et médical dans de nombreuses cultures aujourd'hui. "La magie est centrale non seulement dans les sociétés« primitives », mais aussi dans les sociétés« culturelles élevées »...» Le concept de sorcellerie comme nuisible est souvent considéré comme une idéologie culturelle fournissant un bouc émissaire pour le malheur humain. C'est particulièrement le cas au début de la période moderne de l'Europe, où la sorcellerie a été considérée comme faisant partie d'une vaste conspiration diabolique d'individus en ligue avec le Diable qui a menacé le christianisme, conduisant éventuellement à des chasses aux sorcières à grande échelle, en particulier dans l'Europe protestante. Les chasses aux sorcières se poursuivent aujourd'hui avec des conséquences tragiques. Depuis le milieu du 20ème siècle, la sorcellerie est devenue la désignation d'une branche du paganisme moderne. Il est surtout pratiqué dans les traditions Wiccan et sorcellerie, dont certains prétendent pratiquer un renouveau de la spiritualité pré-Abrahamique.

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.
