Animatismus

Animatismus (nomen a Roberto Ranulpho Marett, anthropologo Britannico factum) est "fides potestatis impersonalis et generalis cui homines aliquantum imperant."Anglice: "a belief in a generalized, impersonal power over which people have some measure of control."Garry Ferraro, Cultural Anthropology: An Applied Perspective, ed. 7a (Belmont Californiae: Thompson Wadsworth, 2008), 340. Marett arguit certas culturas credere "homines, animalia, plantas, resque inanimatas certis viribus praeditas fuisse, quae impersonales et supernaturales fuerunt.Anglice: "people, animals, plants, and inanimate objects were endowed with certain powers, which were both impersonal and supernatural." Mana, ait Marett, notionem Polynesiam commemorans, est vis animatistica in unam formam contracta intra ullam ex his rebus inventa quae potestatem, vires, resque bene gestas defert.Gary Ferraro, Cultural Anthropology: An Applied Perspective, ed. 7a (Belmont Californiae: Thompson Wadsworth, 2008). In culturis variis, animatismus et mana per successus et defectiones harum rerum variarum videri possunt: successus magnam animatismi vel manae summam significat, quandoquidem defectio ex imminutione vel amissione animatismi vel manae efficitur.
