Description

Explore the intersection of early modern science and the supernatural with Science in an Enchanted World. This Routledge research volume examines the work of Joseph Glanvill, specifically his famous 1681 text, Saducismus triumphatus. As one of the most frequently published books of the seventeenth century, Glanvill's arguments regarding the reality of diabolic witchcraft sparked intense debate among his contemporaries. This study provides a detailed look at how Glanvill functioned as a theologian, philosopher, and an advocate for the Royal Society of London. By analyzing his unique approach to the supernatural, the text offers a case study into his broader philosophical methods. It is an essential resource for readers interested in the history of Great Britain, the evolution of early modern thought, and the complex relationship between science and belief during the seventeenth century.
