SUMMARY:A Consensus of Symbols
LOCATION:Worcester Script Haven
DESCRIPTION:with Wayne Perkins - A collection of archaeological essays sur
 veying the presence of magical ritual artefacts in the ancient buildings o
 f BritainBuilt on nearly four decades of research\, this fascinating antho
 logy is a vital guide to understanding the ways in which British household
 ers used magic and ritual to protect their homes from perceived or spiritu
 al threats.Exploring both symbols (such as graffiti) and deposits (such as
  concealed objects)\, A Consensus of Symbols is an essential text that unr
 avels many of the mysteries which have shrouded the academic discourse sur
 rounding ritual building protection: who created the ritual markings? What
  concerns and intentions lay behind this use of ritual? Was magic intentio
 nally evoked through these symbols and deposits\, or were they simply ‘g
 ood luck’ charms?Answering these questions and more\, Wayne Perkins begi
 ns the book with a discussion on the socio-economic\, political\, and cult
 ural contexts of the ritual building phenomena. This is followed by useful
  exploration of the supernatural beliefs which permeated the Early Modern 
 Period\, including a brief outline of the Laws of Sympathetic Magic.The fo
 llowing essays include intriguing and engaging observations on apotropaic 
 graffiti\; ritual taper burn marks\; deliberately concealed old boots and 
 shoes\; spiritual ‘middens’ or caches\; dried\, mummified and smoked c
 ats\; witch bottles\; and much more!A Consensus of Symbols is not only a c
 lear and accessible guide to understanding the strange and engrossing worl
 d of ritual building protection\, but it will also empower both the indivi
 dual and the local history groups to undertake historical and magical surv
 eys of their own.\n\nBoletos: https://wegottickets.com/event/709301
