Contents |
Honour and social control in witchcraft trials -- Fluid self -- Magic and the body -- Healing as counter-magic -- Ambiguity of magic. |
Summary |
Contrary to previous assumptions, magic remained an integral part of everyday life in Enlightenment Europe. This book demonstrates that the endurance of magical practices, both benevolent and malevolent, was grounded in early modern perceptions of an interconnected body, self and spiritual cosmos. |
