Best known as the Saducismus triumphatus (1681), Joseph Glanvill's
book on witchcraft is among the most frequently published from the
seventeenth century, and its arguments for the reality of diabolic
witchcraft elicited passionate responses from critics and
supporters alike. Davies untangles the intricate development of
this text and explores how Glanvill's roles as theologian,
philosopher and advocate for the Royal Society of London converge
in its pages. Glanvill's broader philosophical method and unique
approach to the supernatural provide a case study that enables the
exploration of the interaction between the rise of experimental
science and changing attitudes to witchcraft.
