Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book uncovers a hidden chapter in the history of a universally acknowledged superstition: witchcraft. From the very beginnings of human civilization to the height of the witch craze during the European Renaissance, author Dr. Ludwig Mejer argues that belladonnaâ€"also known as deadly nightshadeâ€"was the key ingredient in witches' magic potions and ointments. In this captivating study, Mejer explores the long-forgotten connection between belladonna-induced hallucinations and the phenomenon of witchcraft as it manifested in Europe. Drawing on extensive research and analysis of historical documents and trial records, the author challenges conventional wisdom, suggesting that the infamous witch hunts were fueled not only by religious extremism but also by the very real effects of deadly nightshade. Through Mejer's meticulous examination, witchcraft emerges as a complex interplay of fear, superstition, and the physiological responses triggered by a potent and dangerous substance. By shedding new light on this dark chapter in human history, this book offers a fresh perspective on the origins and nature of witchcraft, inviting readers to reconsider the fine line between belief and delusion, superstition and science. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
