This important collection of essays brings together both established figures and
new researchers to offer fresh perspectives on the ever-controversial subject of
the history of witchcraft. Using Keith Thomas'
Religion and the Decline of
Magic
as a starting point, the contributors explore the changes of the last twenty-
five years in the understanding of early modern witchcraft, and suggest new
approaches, especially concerning the cultural dimensions of the subject. Witch-
craft cases must be understood as power struggles, over gender and ideology as
well as social relationships, with a crucial role played by alternative represen-
tations. Witchcraft was always a contested idea, never fully established in early
modern culture but much harder to dislodge than has usually been assumed. The
essays are European in scope, with examples from Germany, France and
the Spanish expansion into the New World, as well as a strong core of English
material.
