{"product_id":"conjuring-hope-galina-lindquist-9781845450939","title":"Conjuring Hope: Healing and Magic in Contemporary Russia","description":"\u003cp\u003e Notions of magic and healing have been changing over past years and are now understood as reflecting local ideas of power and agency, as well as structures of self, subjectivity and affect. This study focuses on contemporary urban Russia and, through exploring social conditions, conveys the experience of living that makes magic logical. By following people's own interpretations of the work of magic, the author succeeds in unraveling the logic of local practice and local understanding of affliction, commonly used to diagnose the experiences of illness and misfortune.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Galina Lindquist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1845450930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781845450939\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.70d","brand":"Galina Lindquist","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44058640482559,"sku":"9781845450939","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9082d446-d1cb-4899-9963-c4c92ed1ed52.jpg?v=1685053716","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/conjuring-hope-galina-lindquist-9781845450939","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
