This cultural exploration offers an unparalleled presentation of Pennsylvania’s ritual healing traditions known as powwowing or Braucherei in Pennsylvania Dutch, through original primary source materials, including manuscripts, ritual objects, and books—most of which have never before been available to English-speaking readers. Although methods and procedures have varied considerably over three centuries of ritual practice within the Pennsylvania Dutch cultural region, the outcomes and experiences surrounding this tradition have woven a rich tapestry of cultural narratives that highlight the integration of ritual into all aspects of life, as well as provide insight into the challenges, conflicts, growth, and development of a distinct Pennsylvania Dutch folk culture.

Called "Benedicaria," "Medicina Popolare," "Benedicazione," and many other names by practitioners and detractors alike, the art of folk healing and magic is ancient as the first people living on Italian soil, while at the same time modern as any of us living here and now. Shaped by the Etruscan, Roman, Catholic, and Feudal civilizations of the Old World, and surviving persecution in the New, this spiritual knowledge has survived tremendous opposition, only to find itself slowly fading away as a result of assimilation, political correctness, and theological modernism. In this book, Father Taumaturgo explores the subject's history, its practices, and its modern situation. Certainly a must-read for parents, children, and anyone who wishes to discover this fascinating area of Italian folk spirituality. Learn more at Thavma Publications: http: //www.thavmapub.com
