WITCHCRAFT AND THE BLACK ART - A BOOK DEALING WITH THE PSYCHOLOGY
AND FOLKLORE OF THE WITCHES By J.W. Wickwar. Originally published
in London in the early 1900s, this scarce early work on Witchcraft
is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. Obscure
Books Press have now republished it, using the original text and
artwork. The old craft of the witches was a close order. Its
members were sworn to secrecy. Although some records were kept,
very few of these still exist today. In early ecclesiastic and in
mediaeval literature, however, references to witchcraft are
numerous. This book endeavours to set out in an interesting manner
the story of the craft from earliest times. The book's three
hundred and twenty pages contain fourteen comprehensive chapters:
Witchcraft: A Primitive Cult. - Initiation and Ceremony. - Spells,
The Evil Eye, and Possession. - Practical Witchcraft. - Witchcraft
on the Continent. - Werewolves and Vampires. - Blood and Fire in
England. - Demons and Mascots. - Witch Hunting cameos. - A Typical
English Witch Trial. - Witchcraft in America. - Witchcraft
Phantasmagoria. - A Typical Witch Tract. - The Last Phase. This
book will prove a fascinating read for anyone interested in the
occult arts, and will provide much information to historians of
this hitherto arcane subject. "What are these So wither'd, and so
wild in their attire, That look not like the inhabitants o' the
earth. And yet are on't?" Banquo.
