Healers and Healing Practices at the Beginning of the 21st Century: Ethnological Study
Лечители и лечителски практики в началото на XXI век. Етноложко изследване
Category: Bulgarian traditional cultureHistory of Medicine
Language: Bulgarian

 

   The book presents an ethnological study of Bulgarian folk medicine from the beginning of the 21st century. Different categories of healers and healing practices are analyzed in a process of change, that is seen as part of the mechanism of adaptation of traditional folk healing in a postmodern cultural environment. The existence of traditional healers and healing practices are seen as a socially shared and acceptable compromise both by the healers themselves and by representatives of scientific medicine.
