neo-pagan movement  

Definición

  • Neo-paganism can be described as a postmodern, almost worldwide, new religious and spiritual movement that evokes the spirit of Europe's preChristian pagan culture. This movement finds its origins in a dissatisfaction with what its adherents perceive as the stifling modernist religious models prevailing within contemporary cultures of Christian tradition; it is also born of a longing, akin to the romantic fascination for the primitive world, for more satisfactory models, long gone, reclaimed from antique or even prehistoric times.
