Abstract

Воспоминания о чудесах и камланиях эскимосского шамана: современная атомизация ритуальной жизни и постсоветская ностальгия

Highlights

  • The memories, collected in the winter of 2020, of the underground shamanistic ecstatic séances in the post-war period and the anecdotal miracles performed by Aglu are considered here in the context of modern perception about the “old life” and post-Soviet nostalgia for the sense of community and ritual saturation

  • Why was Aglu called the “strongest shaman”, and knowledgeable Yupik who lived after him were not? What do memories of shamans tell us about ritual dynamics in coastal Chukotka? Can we write about the disappearance of shamanism among the Siberian Yupik, or is the funeral of this tradition premature?
