Krátký popis

In early modern Europe, ideas about nature, God, demons and occult forces were inextricably connected. Much ink and blood was spilled in defining and characterizing nature and the supernatural. This work uses records of Inquisition witchcraft trials in Venice to uncover how individuals understood these two categories. This book illuminates the complex forces shaping early modern beliefs.
