Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Witchcraft Illustrated: Witchcraft to Be Understood; Facts, Theories and Incidents, With a Glance at Old and New Salem and Its Historical Resources Just here a glimpse at the condition of the people of Salem Village is necessary. They believed in God they also believed in a personal devil. They bowed to the one, they defied the other. All life was a conflict with Satan and to fight him they put on the whole armor of the gospel and met him face to face. They believed that Satan chose certain men among them as his agents to carry on his work. They believed that Satan was m'ustering his forces to get control of this world; and their endeavor constantly was to drive him from the earth. Witches, ghosts, fairies, gorgons, hydras, and chimeras dire were all realities at that time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Illustrated History of Magic and Witchcraft written by Susan Greenwood and published by Anness Pub Limited. This book was released on 2012-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magic has played a part in most cultures throughout human history. Traditions and practices may differ but essential elements remain the same. This insightful history examines the roots and foundation of magic, and the way it has shaped our view of the universe and our place within it. The scope of the study is wide, covering a range of traditions from the wise woman of a sixteenth-century English village to a witchdoctor in Africa, or from the customs of the Native American shaman to those of the female shamans of Korea. From magic's origins in the Shamanic tradition came religion, which, for the world's first civilizations, had no distinction from magic. The book examines these beliefs, ideas and convictions through the ages until the present day, with the revival of a magical consciousness in the West and the new forms of goddess-centred witchcraft. The book includes an international sweep of ancient cultural traditions and details the medieval phenomena of witch-hunts that still have resonance in modern society. In addition, it explores the modern wicca movement, tracing the development from the 1900s and its links with the Celtic tradition. Drawing on the work of numerous scholars and experts as well as first-hand research by the author, this fascinating anthropological study invites reflection on the many ways that human beings have sought to relate to the world of the spirit. Lavishly illustrated with archival material, fine art illustrations of legendary magic workers, and special photography, this volume is a comprehensive examination of a fascinating and timeless subject.

Download or read book Magic and Witchcraft written by Ruth Clydesdale and published by Arcturus Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-30 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A cogent, straight-talking and nuanced work to aid anyone who wants a solid understanding of the origins and evolution of witchcraft." - David Southwell, author and curator of @HooklandGuide From ancient Greece and Rome to the birth of the New Witchcraft, the history of this enthralling subject is skillfully told in this richly illustrated book. Witchcraft was once used to influence the unpredictable aspects of life such as crops, health and livestock protection. With people feeling powerless against ill fortune, it became easy to blame malevolent magic and the figure of the witch. Witchcraft today is a benevolent religion that is unrelated to the historic fantasy, but which often employs ancient magical techniques such as poppets and charms. This fascinating history enables the reader to see the timeline for how magic and witchcraft - and perceptions of it - has developed over the centuries. From the glamour of witches depicted in art, such as Circe, Medea, Morgan le Fay and Nimue, to famous historical incidents such as the witch trials and Christian suppression of Pagan temples, the reader will be led on a journey of discovery that is as visually exciting as it is informative. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this book provides a readable and fresh approach to the extensive and complex history of witchcraft and magic.
