Şaman Yorumlamaları ve Büyüsellik
Özet
Shamanism is the totality of a way of life and beliefs enduring since the beginning of human history. The protagonists of this way of life are shamans. As a result of the unique person's, who got lost in contemporary world's artificial, strict rules and huge buildings of metropolis', yearning for the way of life that used to be; my work's main topic became Shamans.This work consists of three parts. In the first part, the outlines of shamanism are examined anthropologically. Shamanism's world view, who became and how did they become shamans and the magical symbols of shamans are emphasized in this part. Contrary to the frequently expressed opinion that shamanism is only a religion, it is a way of life that still endures since the primitive tribes which lived at-one with nature. This way of life is a blend of shamanic world view and ancient Turkish mythology. Shamans are clerics, medicine-men who know the mysteries of nature, magicians and artists at the same time.
