Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive study of sorcery and witchcraft in early modern England. Magic and witchcraft became a major social concern in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, and the author traces the development of the witch craze and explores the ideological, religious, and cultural factors that contributed to it. The book also examines the counter-arguments of those who defended the accused, arguing that the beliefs and practices of witchcraft were not heretical and were part of a wider folk tradition.
