A Dialogue Concerning Witches and Witchcrafts
Author: George Gifford
Publisher: Read Books Ltd
ISBN: 1447482840
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 89
Book Description
George Gifford was a 16th Century preacher and scholar, he wrote on many topics but is most well known for his work on witchcraft. This fascinating discourse is unusual for its moderate stance on witchcraft and the plea for restraint in making accusations and in the trials of suspected witches. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Scepticism and belief in English witchcraft drama, 1538–1681
Author: Eric Pudney
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 9198376888
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
Winner of the 2019 Warburg Prize from the Royal Swedish Academy of Letters, History and Antiquities for an outstanding work of literary history This is a study of the representation of witches in early modern English drama, organised around the themes of scepticism and belief. It covers the entire early modern period, including the Restoration, and pays particular attention to three plays in which witchcraft is central: The Witch of Edmonton (1621), The Late Lancashire Witches (1634) and The Lancashire Witches (1681). Always a controversial issue, witchcraft has traditionally been seen in terms of a debate between ‘sceptics’ and ‘believers’. This book argues instead that, while the concepts of scepticism and belief are central to an understanding of early modern witchcraft, they are more fruitfully understood not as static and mutually exclusive positions within the witchcraft debate, but as rhetorical tools used by both sides.
