Oxford Handbook Of Witchcraft In Early Modern Europe & Col Ohbk Paper by Levack
An authoritative collection of essays surveying the history of witchcraft and witch-hunting across Europe and colonial America from the late medieval period through the seventeenth century. Contributors analyze legal procedures, religious and intellectual frameworks, social and gender dynamics, and regional variations that shaped accusations, trials, and executions, as well as changing beliefs about magic and the supernatural. The volume also charts the decline of prosecutions and reflects on historiographical debates and methodological approaches that have transformed the field.
