A partir des années soixante-dix, suite à la réorganisation du peuple awajún autour des écoles fondées par les missionnaires et à la création de communautés (comunidades nativas), on assiste à un processus interne de marginalisation des chamanes (iwishin). La présence des iwishin étant à l’origine de conflits intra et inter-communautaires, la plupart d’entre eux sont exécutés ou obligés d’abandonner leurs communautés. Pourtant les accusations de sorcellerie au sein des villages persistent. Aux tensions provoquées par la transgression des normes matrimoniales, s’ajoutent les rivalités pour les fonctions politiques, la concurrence pour les ressources économiques, les inégalités générées par le commerce, les inimitiés factionnelles fomentées par les différents ordres religieux. Tous ces conflits donnent souvent lieu à des accusations de sorcellerie entre voisins. De fait, seul l’expulsion définitive du sorcier présumé peut apaiser – au moins provisoirement – les tensions au sein de la communauté. La ville semble être alors le seul endroit où les « sorciers condamnés » peuvent trouver refuge. La capitale de la province de Condorcanqui, Santa María de Nieva, est ainsi progressivement « envahie » par des dizaines d’Awajún exclus des communautés. Par ailleurs, l’interaction constante entre les communautés et le monde urbain suscite la prolifération de nouvelles formes de sorcellerie chez les Awajún, l’apparition d’un vaste « marché de la guérison » et l’appropriation indigène des outils des sociétés centralisées, plus précisément la bureaucratie étatique et la biomédecine. L’analyse du phénomène provoqué par les accusations de sorcellerie permet ainsi d’aborder un large éventail de changements qui affecte et bouleverse la société awajún contemporaine. / Since the 1960s we have witnessed an internal process of marginalization of shamans (iwishin) as a consequence of a reorganization of the Awajun people due to the presence of missionaries’ schools and the foundation of native communities (comunidades nativas). Since the presence of the iwishin has created intra and intercommunal conflicts, most of them are killed or forced to leave their communities. Nevertheless, accusations of witchcraft in the villages persist. Political rivalry, competition for economic resources, inequality caused by trade, and factional hostility stirred up by the various religious orders all add to the tensions caused by the violation of marriage laws. These conflicts often lead neighbors to accuse each other of witchcraft. In fact, only the permanent banishment of the supposed shaman can ease the internal tension in the community at least temporarily. The city seems to be the only refuge for the “condemned witches”. For this reason, Santa Maria de Nieva, the capital of the province of Condorcanqui, has been progressively “invaded” by tens of Awajuns who can no longer live in their communities. On the other hand, the constant interaction between native

Bispos, agentes inquisitoriais e representantes da Coroa portuguesa produziram uma série de documentos entre 1717 e 1802 que permitem perscrutar o cotidiano das Minas Setecentistas. As principais problemáticas do estudo são: quem eram estes mágicos? Qual sua relação com a população das Minas? Quais as solidariedades e conflitos que estabeleceram através de suas práticas? / This master’s thesis seeks to clarify the established relation between those practicing magic - healers, faith healers, soothsayers and sorceresses - and colonial society through Ecclesiastical Visitations that have swept the inside of the region of Minas during the eighteenth century. Bishops, inquisitorial agents and representatives of the Portuguese Crown produced a series of documents between 1717 and 1802 that allow to peer into the daily life of eighteenth-century in Minas. The main issues of the study are: who were these magicians? What is their relationship with the population of Minas? What solidarities and conflicts they have established through their practices?

Cette thèse appréhende les processus identitaires et les transformations socioculturelles en cours au travers de l’appropriation du rap au Gabon depuis la fin des années 1980, ainsi que l’enchevêtrement de ces productions de catégories identitaires avec des rapports de pouvoir campés dans le domaine des hiérarchies entre aînés et cadets, des relations de genre, des stratifications des réseaux de la musique, ou des rapports de force avec les autorités politiques. Une investigation dans les archives du Gabon éclaire d’abord la manière dont, tout en marquant des ruptures avec la génération précédente, les rappeurs se sont inscrits dans la continuité de plusieurs décennies de pratiques de musiques dans la ville et de dialogues transnationaux avec les productions culturelles en circulation dans l’espace Atlantique. Une deuxième partie se consacre à la description des relations de genre et de la construction de la masculinité, révélant l’agentivité développée par certaines femmes des mondes de la nuit et de la musique. Enfin, une troisième partie se focalise sur les revendications identitaires et idéologiques des rappeurs et sur les nationalismes qu’ils réinventent, dans des emboîtements entre l’ethnique, le national, le panafricanisme et le transnational. Elle traite des métamorphoses de la sorcellerie dans les réseaux du rap et de la world music africaine, du spectacle de la nation, et des mobilités transnationales au travers desquelles quelques rappeurs forment de nouvelles catégories identitaires hybrides. / This dissertation apprehends the identity processes and sociocultural changes taking place through the appropriation of rap music in Gabon since the end of the 80s, as well as the entanglement in power relations of those identity categories produced by young people, in the field of hierarchies between elders and youngers, of gender relations, of musical network stratifications, or towards the political authorities.An investigation in the archives of Gabon firstly highlights how, while marking ruptures with the previous generation, rappers were enrolled in the continuity of several decades of urban musical practices and transnational dialogues with some cultural productions circulating in the Atlantic space. A second part is devoted to the description of gender relations and to the construction of masculinity, revealing the agency developed by some women into the urban worlds of the night and of music. Finally, the third part focuses on rappers’ identity and ideological claims, and on the nationalisms they reinvent in negotiation between ethnic, national, transnational and panafrican levels. It deals with the transformations of witchcraft in rap music’s networks and in African world music market, with the spectacle of the nation and with transnational mobilities through which some rappers form new hybrid identity categories.

L’Església catòlica baixmedieval, va aplicar la reforma que havia de regular la moral dels fidels centrant el seu control en les qüestions relatives a la moral sexual (segle XIV) a la diòcesi de Barcelona. Aquesta tesi explica els mecanismes d’aquest control i recull el que visites pastorals i processos episcopals expliquen sobre l’intent de regular les formes d’unió de parella i conductes com l’adulteri, l’incest, la prostitució i molt particularment, el concubinat del clergat. Sosté que, en posar en marxa aquests mecanismes de control, l’Església partia d’una posició de desconfiança, -o de temor-, envers la dona, que portà a un control ferri de la sexualitat dels feligresos en general i dels clergues en especial. Els esforços de reforma dels costums morals van tenir èxit divers, que van abocar en una conseqüència, potser no conscientment volguda, però real: la definició d’una imatge de la dona perillosa, la bruixa, que calia combatre. / Medieval Catholic Church attempted to reform the moral of its members by focusing on aspects related to sexual morality in the 14th C in Barcelona. This thesis explains the mechanisms of such control and compiles the information that pastoral visits and Episcopal trials provide about the attempts to regulate sexual relationship behaviors and conducts, such as: adultery, incest, prostitution and specially Clergy’s concubinage. This thesis supports the statement that when these mechanisms for control were activated by the Catholic Church, they stemmed from distrust –or suspicion- towards women. Such position led to a fierce control of sexual behavior for all Catholic Church members and particularly the Clergy. The efforts made to reform moral behavior had different effects on issues addressed. However, the real consequence –which might not have been deliberate- was the image definition of a dangerous woman, and fighting the Witch.

This research sought to investigate the impact of a belief in witchcraft as an explanation for all the ills in the Hlubi community and South African societies in general - which becomes a good tool for inadequate governments. Our approach in this study has been interdisciplinary and the utilization of comparative analysis and a combination of phenomenological and qualitative research models. Economic problems create social tensions and are manifested in various ways, including witchcraft craze. The Hlubi scenario found parallels in Europe and America. Witchcraft and ancestors are considered to be the main causes of diseases but nature and ecological or environmental dangers are other factors. Pragmatic and obvious response to such phobias is seen in the protective and preventive devices provided by isangoma, amaqhira, amaxhwere, inyanga and faith healers. It is hypothesized that as long as all existential needs exist in Hlubi society witchcraft will continue to be with us, perhaps forever. / Religious Studies & Arabic / DLITT ET PHIL (REL STUD)
