David Marrè shares his experience with Italian traditions during he days of the dead: “In our peninsula, the celebration of the days dedicated to the dead has given rise to many different customs. Modern Paganism is one of the ways of their integration and rediscovery in contemporary times.”
David Marrè racconta la sua esperienza con le tradizioni italiane durante i giorni dei morti:: Molte usanze diverse hanno avuto luogo nella nostra penisola per la celebrazione dei giorni dedicati ai defunti. Il moderno paganesimo è uno dei modi per integrarle e riscoprirle nella contemporaneità.
“As a nation, we love to cast our projections on the witches of Salem,” writes Meg Elison as she examines America’s favorite film about witches. “What we want from the real people who died by state violence, the places where they hanged, the hysteria that killed them, is fun. We want Salem to be a theme park, to amuse us and titillate us.”
The more of Romero’s films that I watched – and especially the more of his novel that I read – the more I also found a theology bubbling up through the blood that aligns with my own theology of Ásatrú, a modern religion that revives, reconstructs, and reimagines the ancient polytheism of Northern Europe.
