Bringing together scholars from Europe, America, and Australia,
this volume explores the more fantastic elements of popular
religious belief: ghosts, werewolves, spiritualism, animism, and of
course, witchcraft. These traditional religious belief and
practices are frequently treated as marginal in more synthetic
studies of witchcraft and popular religion, yet Protestants and
Catholics alike saw ghosts, imps, werewolves, and other
supernatural entities as populating their world. Embedded within
notarial and trial records are accounts that reveal the integration
of folkloric and theological elements in early modern spirituality.
Drawing from extensive archival research, the contributors argue
for the integration of such beliefs into our understanding of late
medieval and early modern Europe.
