A collection of essays on Scottish witchcraft and witch-hunting,
which covers the whole period of the Scottish witch-hunt, from the
mid-sixteenth century to the early eighteenth. Includes studies of
particular witchcraft panics such as a reassessment of the role of
King James VI. Covers a wide range of topics concerned with
Scottish witch-hunting and places it in the context of other topics
such as gender relations, folklore, magic and healing, and moral
regulation by the church and state. Provides a comparative
dimension of witch-hunting beyond Scotland - one on the global
context, and one comparing Scotland with England. It is a showcase
for the latest thinking on the subject and will be of interest to
all scholars studying witchcraft in early modern Europe, as well as
the general reader wanting to move beyond shallow and sensational
accounts of a subject of compelling in. -- .
