AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A beautiful complete set in four volumes of The Magic and Witchcraft in France, a reference work by Th. de Cauzons devoted to the history of magical beliefs and practices of witchcraft in France.
This edition published in 1974 by Otto Zeller Verlag constitutes a reprint of the original edition published between 1901 and 1913 by Dorbon-Aîné in Paris.
The work stands out for its historical and documentary approach, addressing the origins of witchcraft, historical trials, popular beliefs, occult practices and manifestations of the marvelous.
Contents of the four volumes:
* Volume I: Origin of witchcraft, ancient tales and opinions about witches.
* Volume II: Pursuit and punishment of magic up to the Protestant Reformation, the trials of the Templars and of Joan of Arc.
* Volume III: Witchcraft from the Reform to the French Revolution, possessed convents and animal magnetism.
* Volume IV: Contemporary magic, magnetism, psychoses, mediums and the popular marvelous.
Complete four-volume collection, interesting for collectors of old books, esotericism and the history of beliefs.
