Eradicating the Devil's Minions

Anabaptists and Witches in Reformation Europe, 1535-1600

Beschreibung

'Already a leading authority in the history of heresy, Gary K. Waite offers challenging new ways to integrate the early modern witch hunts in the broader anti-heretical developments of the Reformation era. "Eradicating the Devil's Minions" sheds valuable light on a wealth of topics, including attitudes to miracles, debates over the sacraments - notably baptism, popular magic, shamanism and religious charisma - and the entire rhetoric of demonization.'-Stuart Clark, Professor of History, University of Wales, Swansea
