Omschrijving

Witch Cult in Western Europe: A Study in Anthropology is a book written by Margaret Alice Murray, published in 1921. The book explores the history and practices of witchcraft in Western Europe, from the Middle Ages to the early modern period. Murray provides a detailed analysis of the beliefs, rituals, and social structures of the witch cult, drawing on historical documents, folklore, and anthropological research. She argues that witchcraft was not a form of devil worship, as was commonly believed at the time, but rather a pre-Christian fertility religion that survived in secret through the centuries. Murray's theories about the witch cult were controversial in her time and continue to be debated by scholars today. The book is considered a landmark in the study of witchcraft and has had a significant influence on modern Wicca and other neopagan religions.1921. This is an intensive study of the witch cult in Great Britain. The author uses French and Flemish sources to obtain a clearer understanding of the ritual and beliefs, as the witch cult appears to be the same throughout western Europe. The sources from which the information used within are the judicial records and contemporary chroniclers. In the case of the chroniclers, the author studied their facts, not their opinions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
