Witchcraft and masculinities in early modern Europe

by

  • 1 Want to read

"Men and masculinities are still inadequately incorporated into the historiography of early modern witch trials, despite the fact that 20-25% of all accused 'witches' were male. This book redresses this imbalance by making men the focus of the gender analysis and also covers the issue of regional variation in the gendering of witch persecution"--Provided by publisher.
