Hoes van Brian Levack & Marijke Gijswijt-Hofstra: Witchcraft and Magic in Europe, Volume 5 (PDF)

The end of the eighteenth century saw the end of the witch trials everywhere. This volume charts the processes and reasons for the decriminalisation of witchcraft but also challenges the widespread assumption that Europe has been ‘disenchanted’. For the first time surveys are given of the social role of witchcraft in European communities down to the end of the nineteenth century and of the continued importance of witchcraft and magic as topics of debate among intellectuals and other writers
