Description

Explore the role of witchcraft in English public life from 1650 to 1750 with this scholarly work from Oxford University Press. Ian Bostridge examines the theological, philosophical, and legal dimensions of witchcraft during a period of significant societal change. This book analyzes the impact of civil war politics and the writings of Thomas Hobbes on contemporary opinions. It covers the debates surrounding the Glorious Revolution and the legal disputes that led to the repeal of Jacobean witchcraft legislation in 1736. By studying the work of writers like Richard Boulton, Francis Hutchinson, and James Erskine of Grange, this text provides a balanced account of how views on the occult transformed over a century.
