Impressed by his healing powers and shamanic virtuosity, Moroccan Jews are intrigued by his lifestyle and contacts with the Muslim and the demonic worlds that dangerously blurred his Jewish identity. Based on interviews with Moroccan Jews conducted in the late 1980s, Without Bounds proposes multiple readings of Wazana's life. Yoram Bilu re-creates the influences and important moments in Wazana's life and evaluates his character from psychological and anthropological perspectives. Human- and demon-bound, holy and impure, Jew and Muslim, old and young, Rabbi Ya'aqov Wazana dissolved the boundaries of the major social categories in Morocco and integrated them into his identity. 410 0$aRaphael Patai series in Jewish folklore and anthropology. 606 $aMedicine, Popular 606 $aMedicine, Magic, mystic, and spagiric$zMorocco 606 $aRabbis$zMorocco$vBiography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMedicine, Popular. 615 0$aMedicine, Magic, mystic, and spagiric 615 0$aRabbis 676 $a296/.092 676 $aB 700 $aBilu$b Yoram$0170194 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524861603321 996 $aWithout Bounds$92721021 997 $aUNINA
