Witch Trials : A Worldwide Chronology, Paperback / softback Book

Witch Trials : A Worldwide Chronology Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This chronological reference compendium traces accusations, punishments, and the investigation of occultism from sorcery inquiries in 323 BCE Athens to the modern day.

The text provides detailed information on actual hearings, torture, and death sentences for cases both famous and unknown. Primary sources--media, correspondence, adjudication--reveal the appalling injustices of government, church, and mobs toward the accused.

Extensive appendices include a glossary, chronology of examples, and a list of legal proceedings, their locations, and outcomes.
