> *Title of the Panel: *Tantra, Shamanism, and Magic: Experiences,

>
> *Convenors:* Andrea Acri (EPHE, Paris) and Paolo E. Rosati (Independent

> *Deadline:* 5 December 2020

> *Abstract:* Tantra, since the middle of the first millennium CE when it
> made its first step in the Brahmanic religious folds, challenged the
> dualistic view of the cosmos as an opposition between purity and impurity.
> Through its ritual violation and subversion of what was perceived as
> orthopraxy by the mainstream religions in many regions of Asia, Tantra
> emerged as a source of power, which was closely related to the milieux at
> the “margins” of Indic mainstream religions. Through a multidisciplinary
> approach, this panel aims to shed light on experiences, practices and
> practitioners which have been frequently alienated by the mainstream Indic
> religions across South and Southeast Asia. Particular attention will be
> paid to the cross- and trans- cultural dialectic between mainstream,
> tantric, and intersecting magic-shamanic “marginal” phenomena across
> history and geography, and their instantiations in textual corpora, myths,
> folk and oral traditions, visual and performative arts, rituals, and
> festivals.
> Please email to paoloe.rosati at gmail.com (cc to andrea.acri at ephe.psl.eu)

> in the panel proposal, and a short CV (max. 2 pages) with your academic
> experiences (paper presentations, publications, academic degrees, etc.) *by
