An Analysis of Miracles

Published by:

René Lužica, a researcher at the Institute of Roma Studies in Nitra, studied “miracles” and apparitions in Roma settlements. He says that the revelation of the Saviour’s silhouette in Batizovce and Petrov which are a miracle for local Roma believers are a manifestation of popular faith.
One wonders what this has to do with Roma studies …
