Aggiungi al carrelloFacsimile. Octavo, pp. 590. Reproduction of the 1886 edition. Publisher's green softcover. Some minor discolouration to lower edge of pages. Originally published 1548, "The Discoverie of Witchcraft" is an exposé on early modern witchcraft. The volume also contained a small section on how charlatans fooled the public, which is no…ted to be the first published material on illusions and stage magic. Scot wrote "The Discovery of Witchcraft" with the hope of preventing the persecution of vulnerable groups who were popularly accused of witchcraft, and blamed the Roman Catholic Church for the perpetuation of such wrongful convictions. Scot received widespread criticism of his work, and in fact there remains the popular belief that all obtainable copies of his work were burned upon the ascension of James I to the throne in 1603.
