Description

Focusing closely on the relationship between belief, culture, and healing in the past, this volume collects essays on France, the Netherlands, Germany, Spain, and England, ranging from the 16th century to the late 1990s. The contributors draw on a broad range of material, from the studies of demonologists and reports of asylum doctors, to church archives and oral evidence.
