About this product

Product Information

This book offers an informative examination of the history of magic and witchcraft, with an international perspective, from Neolithic times to the ending of the witch hunts in Northern Europe. It covers the human connection with magic and the otherworld of spirits using examples from African, Asian and European traditions. Look at witchcraft in popular culture, superstition, mythology and learn of the ignorance over who witches were. The book contains spreads on: spirits and familiars, old wives' tales, famous witches, healing and herbalism, wise women and cunning men. Each chapter is devoted to a related topic such as magic, witchcraft and witch hunts, building an anthropological investigation that shows clearly how an examination of magic in society is also a study of human history.
