'La superstizione fa parte della natura dell’uomo e, se ci si ripropone di rimuoverla del tutto, essa si rifugia nei cantucci e negli angoli più strani, da dove, appena si ritiene di essere abbastanza al sicuro, all ’ improvviso, torna a fare la sua comparsa' . J. W. Goethe. E’ con questa celebre frase che lo scrittore tedesco Goethe espone in breve il concetto di superstizione, quale elemento presente da sempre nell’esistenza dell’individuo e quindi parte integrante della sua cultura. Il libro vuole indagare alcuni aspetti dell’esistenza umana, ed in particolare approfondire riti e tradizioni culturali appartenenti ai calabresi, tramandati da una ricca e feconda tradizione popolare. I contenuti della ricerca raccontano usi e consuetudini della terra di Calabria, derivati da prassi antiche come le sue genti che sin dalle origini della società hanno abitato questa splendida terra.
