内容説明
Witches and Neighbours is a highly original and unconventional analysis of a fascinating historical phenomenon. Unlike other studies of the subject which focus on the mechanisms of persecution, this book presents a rich picture of witchcraft as an all-pervasive aspect of life in early modern Europe.
This book is not available from Blackwell in the United States and the Philippines.
A fascinating and accessible account of the central role of witchcraft in early modern Europe.
