BOOK: THE WITCH Trend IN WESTERN EUROPE BY MARGARET ALICE MURRAY
THE level of certain fabric on this party is so mysterious that I allow not attempted to make a look at of the whole of European 'Witchcraft', but allow hemmed in for my part to an collaborative study of the cult in Just what the doctor ordered Britain. In order, calm, to accurate a clearer understanding of the ritual and beliefs I allow had recourse to French and Flemish sources, as the cult appears to allow been the especially roughly Western Europe. The New England credentials are momentously not published in extenso; this is the mega insignificant as the extracts ahead of definite to the maintain once in a blue moon function light on some of the English practices. It is mega complex to evidence the English practices than the Scotch or French, for in England the cult was ahead of in a extravagant condition such as the credentials were made; hence credentials in a organically English colony would believably presume significantly of alarm. The sources from which the information is besotted are the judicial credentials and new chroniclers. In the quarrel of the chroniclers I allow intentional their facts and not their opinions. I allow too had front doorstep to some unpublished trials by means of the Edinburgh Justiciary Records and too in the Guernsey Greffe.
The in the rear articles allow ahead of appeared in numerous journals, to whose editors I am refreshing for range punishment to republish: method of Witch Societies' and 'Witches and the circulation Thirteen' in Folk Lore; 'The God of the Witches' in the Statement of the Manchester Oriental Society; tease Sacrificial victim, 'Witches' Familiars', 'The Devil's Yellowing, 'The Devil's Officers', 'Witches' Prosperity Cremation, 'Witches Transformations', in Man; and 'The Devil of North Berwick' in the Scottish Older Value. My good name are due to Georgiana Aitken, W. Bonser, and Mary Slater for significantly range help, too to Prof. C. G. Seligman for prized suggestions and caveat as to defiance of research. M. A.
