Description

Explore the profound impact of spiritual belief in early modern Scotland with Satan and the Scots: The Devil in Post-Reformation Scotland, c.1560-1700. Part of the St Andrews Studies in Reformation History, this work examines how the figure of the Devil became an immediate presence in everyday life. From the pulpit and the courtroom to print and street life, the presence of Satan shaped the social and political landscape of the era. This historical study looks at how these beliefs served different purposes for different people. For those involved in political struggles, the Devil provided a common enemy that helped unify communities. For others, the Reformed Protestant focus on the link between sin and Satan created a deep sense of fear regarding their own spiritual state. This book offers a detailed look at what it meant to live in a society where the supernatural was woven into the fabric of both public law and private conscience.
