Magic and witchcraft have been important components of almost every
human culture throughout history, and continue to be so in the
present day, both globally and in the West. These topics have
attracted an enormous amount of scholarship, but publications are
often scattered, and scholars working in one area rarely address
research produced in others. These volumes bring together important
representative publications spanning antiquity to the present day,
and setting Western developments in a global context. Significant
attention has been given to the major witch hunts of early modern
Europe, because scholarship on early modern witchcraft has often
driven the field. But other periods and regions are not neglected.
Important theoretical issues are also addressed, such as the
conceptual relationship between magic, science, and religion, and
the role of gender in the perception (and persecution) of magical
practices in many parts of the world.
