ABSTRACT
Within the framework of everyday life, persons, values and ways of behaving are exposed to the gaze of others; therefore they must appear to be compatible with and analogous to the accepted principles of communal life. us, whenever these principles are violated by superiority (whether conscious or not) in appearance or the material goods someone exhibits, the ideal sociability of collective life is undermined and the resulting structural disorder brings about the danger of the evil eye, that is the visual attack on the transgressor. e evil eye attacks the body, the property, the personal and social being of the a icted. Recovery requires the spell against the evil eye, that is, the ritual reintegration of the a icted person in society.
