Stregoneria, astrologia, divinazione e ogni tipo di magia popolare fiorirono in inghilterra durante il sedicesimo e diciassettesimo secolo, dalla credenza che un amuleto benedetto potesse prevenire gli assalti del diavolo all'uso degli stessi amuleti per recuperare beni rubati. Nello stesso periodo la riforma protestante tentò di eliminare la magia dalla religione e gli scienziati stavano sviluppando nuove spiegazioni dell'universo. La classica analisi di keith thomas delle credenze sostenute a ogni livello della società inglese inizia con il crollo della chiesa medievale e termina con il cambiamento dell'atmosfera intellettuale intorno al 1700, quando la scienza e il razionalismo iniziarono a sfidare i vecchi sistemi di credenze.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Witchcraft, astrology, divination and every kind of popular magic flourished in England during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, from the belief that a blessed amulet could prevent the assaults of the Devil to the use of the same charms to recover stolen goods. At the same time the Protestant Reformation attempted to take the magic out of religion, and scientists were developing new explanations of the universe. Keith Thomas's classic analysis of beliefs held on every level of English society begins with the collapse of the medieval Church and ends with the changing intellectual atmosphere around 1700, when science and rationalism began to challenge the older systems of belief.
