Description
Witch trials in the European or American sense were not common in Ireland. A Bewitched Land tells the stories of four remarkable Irish court cases that took place between the fourteenth and nineteenth centuries. Other chapters chronicle the extraordinary live of individuals deemed to be practitioners of the black arts – hedge witches, sorcerers and sinister characters. This book gives a unique insight into the fascinating overlap between witch belief and the vast range of fairy lore that held sway for many centuries throughout the land.
