Description
Witchcraft and witches throughout history have long captured the imagination -- yet hidden away in archives are records of long-forgotten cases. Many are tragic, some unusual -- even inexplicable -- but all are fascinating in their own right. Devon's Forgotten Witches: 1860-1910 delves deep into these records, uncovering accusations of witchcraft in the county that have languished, unacknowledged, in the British Newspaper Archive for decades. These are the stories of ordinary people whose lives were touched in some way by witchcraft. Tracey Norman and Mark Norman examine these cases within their historical context, drawing together details from contemporary news reports to explore what might really have happened. The result is an intriguing snapshot of Victorian and Edwardian press coverage -- revealing how the public was encouraged to view those who still placed their faith in "incredible superstition." Most importantly, this work gives new voice to those whom the historical record had long silenced.
