ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
What happens when Italian folk traditions cross the Atlantic? This video explores how Italian witchcraft, especially the healing practice of Segnature, has been reimagined, reinvented, and often misrepresented in the United States. From Leland's Aradia to Wicca-inspired “Stregheria,” we'll look at how Italian-American communities blended folklore, Catholic devotion, and Pagan spirituality to create new forms of practice. But are these the same as the vernacular traditions in Italy, or something entirely different?This video is a recording of the paper I presented at the World Congress of the International Association for the History of Religions, held at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland.Join me as we unpack the myths, the reinventions, and the cultural translations behind Italian witchcraft in America.CONNECT & SUPPORT

Humans live in richly normatively structured social environments: there are ways of doing things that are appropriate, and we are aware of what these ways are. For many social scientists, social institutions are sets of rules about how to act, though theories differ about what the rules are, how they are established and maintained, and what makes some social institutions stable through social change and others more transient. In Presentist Social Functionalism: Bringing Contemporary Evolutionary Biology to the Social Sciences (Springer, 2025), Armin Schulz defends a version of the general view that social institutions have functions, drawing on a concept of function from evolutionary biology. On his view, the function of a social institution is not a matter of its history, but those features that explain its ability to survive and thrive in the here and now. Schulz, who is professor of philosophy at the University of Kansas, also uses this account to provide an explanation of what institutional corruption amounts to, and to analyze current debates between shareholder vs. stakeholder views of the function of a corporation.

The book explores how children make meaning and sense of their world, offering an account that foregrounds their sense of ethical commitments and their beliefs in key humanistic ideas.

Bestselling author K.A. Linde joins the Fresh Fiction Podcast to talk about her journey from contemporary romance to fantasy, the rise of romantasy, the research and myths behind The Wren in the Holly Library, and what's next for her ever-expanding backlist.
Natalia Zourabova was born in Moscow, Russia in 1975, lives and works in Tel Aviv since 2004. She studied at the Russian Academy of Theater Art in Moscow (1995-2000) and the University of Arts in Berlin (2000-2003). Zourabova is primarily a figurative painter. She paints scenes that she knows intimately – oftentimes city streets in her neighborhood in Jaffa, or familiar interiors. Color is central to Zourabova's work; her palette and the mood of her paintings range from naturalistic to absurd, and her paintings vary along the spectrum of realism to abstraction. Zourabova has exhibited various solo shows in Israel, at Haifa Museum of art (2024), Herzliya Museum of contemporary art (2019-20), Janco Dada Museum, Ein-Hod (2005); as well as at the Iragui Gallery in Russia (2008-2019), and had multiple solo exhibitions across Israel, Russia, France, Sweden and more. She has participated in group shows internationally at such venues as The Israel Museum (2015, 2018), Mediterranean Biennale (2020,2013), the Garage Triennial of Contemporary art (2020; Salaisons in Paris, France (2010); and the Vasternorrland Museum in Sweden (2000), among others.

Ever walked out of an “advocacy meeting” with your admin and thought, Is anything ever going to change?You brought the data. You showed the charts. You quoted the position statements. And still, you walked away with the same ridiculous caseload, or worse- another responsibility placed on your shoulders.All that effort doesn't move the needle. It just keeps you running in circles.In this episode of the School for School Counselors Podcast, I'm grading advocacy as it stands in our profession right now... and let's just say the report card isn't pretty.I'll unpack why the version of advocacy we've been handed sets us up to fail, the traps that keep us stuck shouting into the void, and four strategies that actually move the needle.If you've ever wondered why “advocating harder” hasn't worked for you (and what you can do differently), this episode is your permission slip to stop playing small and start leading with influence.References (Annotated)American School Counselor Association.

In Christ, we are no longer spiritual orphans—wandering, unwanted, or unsure of who we are. God chose us before the foundation of the world, adopted us into His family, redeemed us through the blood of His Son, and sealed us with His Spirit.

Send us a textTiger Daughter by Rebecca LimWen and her best friend, Henry, have a plan. A plan to help get them out of their everyday lives. Because being immigrants to the country of Australia - not the easiest thing in the world. Especially when you have a father who is resentful of the fact that things didn't work out as he thought they would, as is the case with Wen, whose family has been in the country for around 10 years and in Henry's case, parents who both seem to struggle, particularly his mother. If they can pass an entrance exam into a prestigious school, Henry really believes things will change. But when an unexpected tragedy hits his house, it is up to Wen to figure out how to keep their dream alive, all the while navigating her father. Recommended for grades 6 and up. Support the show
Can a state make its people forget the dead? Cemeteries have become sites of acute political contestation in the city-state of Singapore. Confronted with high population density and rapid economic growth, the government has ordered the destruction of all but one burial ground, forcing people to exhume their family members. In Necropolitics of the Ordinary: Death and Grieving in Contemporary Singapore (University of Washington Press, 2025), an ethnography of Chinese funeral parlors and cemeteries, anthropologist and trained mortician Dr. Ruth E. Toulson demonstrates this as part of a larger shift to transform a Daoist-infused obsession with ancestors into a sterile, more easily controlled "Protestant" Buddhism. Further, in a context where the dead remain central to family life, forced exhumation tears the social fabric, turning ancestors into ghosts. Using death ritual and grieving as interrogative lenses, Dr. Toulson explores the scope of and resistance to state power over the dead, laying bare the legacies of colonialism and consequences of whirlwind capitalist development. In doing so, she offers a new anthropology of death, one both more personal and politicized. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Eating Disorders: A Contemporary Introduction (Routledge, 2022) presents an accessible introduction to the conceptualization and treatment of eating disorders from a psychoanalytic perspective. Each of the chapters offers a different perspective on these difficult-to-treat conditions and taken together, illustrate the breadth and depth that psychoanalytic thinking can offer both seasoned clinicians as well as those just beginning to explore the field. Different aspects of how psychoanalytic theory and practice can engage with eating disorders are addressed, including mobilizing its nuanced developmental theories to illustrate the difficulties these patients have with putting feelings into words, the loathing that they feel towards their bodies, the disharmonies they experience in the link between body and mind, and even the ways that they engage with online Internet forums. This is an accessible read for clinicians at the start of their career and will also be a useful, novel take on the subject for experienced practitioners. Tom Wooldridge, PsyD, ABPP, CEDS-S is Chair in the Department of Psychology at Golden Gate University as well as a psychoanalyst and board-certified, licensed psychologist.

In addition, Dr. Wooldridge has been interviewed by numerous media publications including Newsweek, Slate, WebMD, and others for his work.

In this episode of Endo Voices, host Dr. Marcus Johnson sits down with Drs. Luca Moranzoni and Jon Cowie to explore the evolution of endodontic education and clinical practice. Known on Instagram as Contemporary Endodontics, a brilliant and enchantingly entertaining duo who balance the conversation as effortlessly as a reciprocating file. The duo reflects on their decade-long journey of building an educational platform that balances evidence, clinical pragmatism, and a touch of humor. Together, they unpack how workflow-based teaching, CBCT imaging, and restorative-minded approaches are shaping the future of endodontics.From candid conversations about failure and mentorship to insights on bioceramics, conservative access, and patient-centered outcomes, this episode highlights how modern endodontists can adapt, grow, and connect through both technology and community. Whether you're a seasoned clinician or an endo-enthusiast, you'll gain valuable perspective on embracing challenges, leveraging digital platforms, and, ultimately, delivering care that elevates both the patient experience and the profession.Episodes of Endo Voices may include opinion, speculation and other statements not verifiable in the scientific method and do not necessarily reflect the views of AAE or the sponsor(s).
