This book (the authors revised dissertation) analyzes the history
of the concept of magic spanning about 2,500 years. Following an
introduction discussing the problem of academic definitions of
magic in general, the book presents the comprehensive history of
the concept of magic for the first time, from its origins in
antiquity to the 20th century. Polemic texts with an external
perspective are included in equal measure along with authors that
described and understood themselves as "magicians" in Western
cultural history.
