Sorcerenious Sorcerer. Theory and artistic practice: Sergey Zenkin

Sacred (sacred) is one of the most general, meaningful and deep categories of human culture. Forming the basis of religious experiences, rituals and institutions, the sacred is preserved in modern culture and competes with a rationalist thought, forcing it to closely look at her opponent.
In the 20th century, the sacred was subjected to “secularization”: not only theology, but also philosophy, sociology, anthropology, modern literature and art are engaged in its study. In such conditions, the intellectual story of the sacred becomes necessary – the interdisciplinary history of his concepts, which this book is dedicated to. Among the authors under consideration are scientists Emil Durkheim, Marseille Moss, Rudolf Otto, Mary Douglas, Yuri Lotman, writers and thinkers Joseph de local, Mirce Eliade, Georges Batai, Roger Kayua, Jean -Paul Sartre and many others.
For specialists and students of humanitarian specialties.
