Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the evolution of the Scottish witchcraft narrative, from the shape it took in the sixteenth-century to the form it adopted in the eighteenth century. It concentrates on analyzing the different social factors which contributed to the changing nature and interpretations of witchcraft. The text draws on a wealth of original archival research to argue that witchcraft claims and accusations were intimately connected to the social and economic changes taking place in Scotland at the time. The author suggests that the shifts in beliefs and practices around witchcraft reflected wider social transformations, including an emergent capitalist agricultural economy and a more centralized state. This book provides a new perspective on the history of witchcraft in Scotland.
