Healing Practices in Orthodox Monasteries in Bulgaria: The Perspective of (Post)Secular Anthropology

The book is a survey and analysis of ritual practices undertaken “for health” by the Bulgarian faithful in Orthodox monasteries. These activities include incubation, ablution in healing springs, interacting with sacral objects, the so-called Cyprian prayers, the sacrament of anointing with oils, consuming blessed food and making offerings (kurbans). The specific character of these practices has been portrayed both in the synchronic dimension and in the diachronic one, based on (post)secular anthropological theory.

Keywords: energies, ontologies, sensory forms, Orthodox Christianity, esoterica, theology, ethnology.
