A unique collection of materials, including works of literature as
well as historical documents, Witchcraft and Society in England and
America, 1550 1750 provides a broad view of how witches and
magicians were represented in print and manuscript over three
centuries. It combines newly annotated selections from famous
texts, such as Macbeth, Doctor Faustus, and The Faerie Queene with
unjustly obscure ones: portrayals of witchcraft and magic from
private papers, court records, and little-known works of fiction.
In this rich, broad context, Marion Gibson presents the voices of
"witches," accusers, ministers, physicians, poets, dramatists,
magistrates, and witchfinders from both sides of the Atlantic. Each
text is introduced with a short essay and fully annotated to
explain unfamiliar words and concepts, give biographical details of
participants and/or authors, and explore the context in which the
text was produced."
