This new translation of Sud e Magia, Ernesto de Martino's 1959 study of ceremonial magic and witchcraft in southern Italy, showcases how magic is not about whether it is rational or irrational but why it came to be perceived as a problem of knowledge in the first place. Setting his exploration within his wider, pathbreaking theorization of ritual, as well as in the context of his politically sensitive analysis of the global south’s historical encounters with Western science, de Martino presents the development of magic and ritual in Enlightenment Naples as a paradigmatic example of the complex dynamics between dominant and subaltern cultures. Far ahead of its time, this text is still relevant as anthropologists continue to wrestle with modernity’s relationship with magical thinking.

The newest issue of HAU: Journal of Ethnographic Theory, Vol. 5.1, is now set for release on June 15th. We apologieze for the delay, but we promise you that it will be worth it. The editors sought to include some extra special material in what will be the 10th issue of HAU, including Thomas Piketty's first written engagement with anthropology, which among our other initiatives makes HAU a journal reaching far beyond disciplinary boundaries.

HAU’s “Four-Month” Warranty and Implementation of an “Early View” Option

On June 15, 2015, HAU: Journal of Ethnographic Theory will institute a “four-month” warranty on all articles submitted to the journal. This means that any individually submitted article that passes peer-review will be guaranteed to be published within four months of submission. Articles that cannot be fit into a scheduled issue’s table of contents will be published singularly as “early view” articles online (a feature to be integrated mid-Summer 2015), which then will be incorporated into a future issue. Get your ideas published early and submit your best article to HAU.

HAU has now been included in the European Reference Index for the Humanitities (ERIH), and is also currently indexed and archived with Scopus, Abstracts in Anthropology, Open Folklore, RAI-AIO, Anthropological Literature, EBSCO, Google Scholar, and in several scholarly social networks. In the next few months, the compulsory waiting time for other indexes will pass and we expect HAU to be fully indexed in Thomson Reuters (WebScience), Proquest, and listed in aggregation sites like JSTOR.

Reminder: Call for Journal Manuscripts in the French, Spanish and Portuguese Languages

HAU: Journal of Ethnographic Theory has now opened its submission pool to manuscripts written in the French, Spanish, and Portuguese langauges. Manuscripts will be peer-reviewed in the language of submission; if accepted for publication, the article will be translated and then published in the journal. Please send HAU your best papers in French, Spanish, or Portuguese.
