In the early Middle Ages, magic was considered a practical science,
requiring study and skill. But as European society became more
articulate and self-conscious, the old tradition of magic as a
science became associated with heresy and sorcery. Thereafter the
Middle Ages knew no safe, learned magic that was not subject to
accusation of diabolism in one form or another, and the magician,
like the later witch, could be punished for both spiritual and
temporal offenses. Through Peters's analysis of the legal,
ecclesiastical, and literary responses to this problem, magic and
witchcraft are located more accurately in the cultural context of
the time, providing important insight into medieval history.
