Description

Explore the complex history of belief systems in 17th-century Britain with this scholarly study from Routledge. This work examines how elite and popular views on witchcraft and magic interacted during a period of massive transformation in England. Set against the backdrop of the Civil War, Interregnum, and Restoration, the text analyzes how political, religious, and social upheaval shaped the way people understood the supernatural. You will learn how the religious ferment of the era gave new life to beliefs in witchcraft, as various factions used imagery of the devil and witches to support their positions. This book provides a deep look into how people used portents to argue against their opponents during times of conflict. It is a detailed resource for anyone interested in the social history of England and the way superstition influenced political and religious life during one of the most turbulent eras in British history.
