İthaki Yayınları Sociology and Anthropology - 1

Product description

Magic, by definition, is a matter of belief.

like more real than their own items, usually the belief in magic is more deeply rooted than their belief in their items.

often this belief is mechanically spread in the entire society, shared from birth.

here, the belief in magic is no different from scientific beliefs. Most scholars in this field agree that magic is a kind of “pre-scientific science”, regardless of the differences of opinion on specific topics. It is assumed that magic first existed in a bee state, and that humans could initially only think in terms of solitary magic.

the prominent place of magical rites in the temples of the cults and folk culture of the peoples of the world is considered an important evidence confirming this assumption. It is also said that some of the carvings from central austria, where totem ceremonies are said to have had a completely magical quality, still maintain this state of magic.

magic, thus, primitive man constitutes both all mysterious life, all scientific life. For example

some folklorists see the ancient agricultural ceremonies of the malays as magic.

religion, through its intellectual elements, despite its transcendence towards nature, is described as being more inclined towards concrete reality, the magic that prioritizes understanding nature.

it is certain that a section of the sciences were developed by magicians, especially in primitive society. In ancient greece, chemists were sorcerers, star diviners were sorcerers, and they were the founders and workers of astronomy, physics, chemistry, and the history of nature, just like in india and other places.
