Description: Be sure to see my other items for more books. Title / Description: The Discoverie of Witchcraft by Reginald Scot. A quality reproduction of the original 1584 work. Hardcover, oversized, printed in the 1990s Condition: Very Good or better with unmarked text and title page. A gently used copy in lightly rubbed boards, A large book. Very clean text and title. I see one old owner's name stamp on the preliminary pages, but the title page and all else are clean and bright. No dampness or negative odors etc. Strong and square binding. About this book: often referenced but rarely read title concerning Witchcraft and Ceremony magic and even herbalism. I scarcely know where to begin, in fact, books have been written about this work. Here Scott offers the reader page after page of the practices & tools used and needed to effectively practice black magic, white magic and witchcraft. Often even citing his sources. All of this however is delivered in the air of disbelief, as if he's proving how unlikely, ludacris and misguided these practices actually are. This is where the controversy begins, is Scott's “discovery of witchcraft” something like an act of satire, or is it a ruse to communicate and preserve these teachings and practices in an era where that would get you burned at the stake. This is actually not as farcical as one may think. In fact, it mirrors tactics used by other authors writing on occult and scientific topics for hundreds of years prior.
