Abstracts

EN

The article compares the activities of child witches and pious children as a behaviour distinct from everyday customary conduct, which fulfilled certain goals and was memorized in the form of numerous written records and oral accounts. The author exemplifies in the light of some cases of religious awakening of the children from the 18th century to what extent it is justified to talk about child agency and a culture of pious children and where this culture is located in the discourse of research on children’s culture.
