The new animal ritualities
Between history and anthropology, this introduction looks at rituals that involve animals who do not act as mediators with invisible entities, but are in fact the actors or beneficiaries of the cult. As markers of new interspecific arrangements, three forms of rituality are emerging around the world...

Entre histoire et anthropologie, il s’agit de s’intéresser à des formes rituelles qui impliquent des animaux non pas en tant que médiateurs avec des invisibles, mais en tant qu’acteurs ou bénéficiaires du culte. Témoignant d’agencements interspécifiques nouveaux, dans de nombreux contextes culturels et religieux, trois formes innovantes de ritualité se dégagent : les adaptations de formes rituelles anciennes à la faveur d’une nouvelle sensibilité pour les animaux, l’extension des cultes traditionnels aux animaux — devenus bénéficiaires du rite — et l’émergence de néo-ritualités naturalistes. Entre la historia y la antropología, este dossier se interesa por formas rituales que implican a animales que no actúan como mediadores con entidades invisibles, sino como actores o beneficiarios del culto. Indicadoras de nuevas formas de interacción interespecífica, en numerosos contextos culturales y religiosos emergen tres modalidades de ritualidad: la adaptación de formas rituales antiguas al calor de una nueva sensibilidad hacia los animales; la extensión de cultos tradicionales a animales que pasan a ser también sus beneficiarios; y la aparición de nuevas ritualidades de inspiración naturalista. |
