What is the book about? Before modern medicine, it was believed that demons, including the devil, were responsible for illnesses and ailments. A witch could also inflict a condition by casting a spell. This led to the creation of superstitions, rituals, prayers, and exorcisms aimed at warding off evil forces. Henryk Biegeleisen, intertwining Slavic demonology with Christian faith, mythology, and ancient beliefs passed down through generations, presents the practices used in healing. He explains spells, prayers, and charms, emphasizing the belief in the power of words – even seemingly insignificant ones like “Abracadabra.” Why was jaundice treated with yellow objects, and why was dog hair applied to wounds from dog bites? What was the reasoning behind curing lung diseases with veal lungs? Did drinking the most disgusting mixtures really drive the illness out of the sick person's body? Healing of the Polish People attempts to answer many such questions.
