This reference volume contains alphabetically arranged entries on witch hunting in Europe, from Portugal to Russia, as well as those colonies in the Americas where Europeans exercised political domination. It covers a time span beginning with fourteenth-century sorcery trials associated with the French and Papal courts and ending with the last witch executions by formal legal process at the close of the eighteenth century. Individual entries address such topics as major witch-hunts and trials, the witch-hunt in various countries, and subsequent interpretations of the witch-hunt by historians.
