An original overview of witchcraft and witch-hunting in early modern England, from the first witch trials early in Elizabeth I's reign to the repeal of the Witchcraft Statute in 1736, demonstrating how learned discussion of witchcraft, as well as the trials of those suspected of the crime, were shaped by religious and political imperatives.
