Scholars have long recognized that witchcraft and witch-hunting were both prevalent in premodern Europe before the decriminalization of witchcraft during the Enlightenment. Recently, however, historians have come to recognize that magical belief and the persecution of people deemed to be witches have survived into modern times. In this course, we will explore the survival of witchcraft beliefs in the Enlightenment era as witch-hunting declined, the resurgence of ritual magic and witchcraft in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and manifestations of witchcraft belief and witch-hunting in the contemporary world.
