Customer Reviews

this book kicks ass! - Rated 5/5
this work is extremely mind provoking...bringing to question not only who the benandanti were, but also what their purpose was in a society which bore a quite rigid definition of witches. ginzburg does a marvelous job of uniting various archive sources and creating, if you will, an artistic reality to witches in the early europe of the 16th and 17th centuries.


An important book in the historiography of witchcraft - Rated 5/5
Ginzburg's research on the benandanti was path-breaking when it first appeared in the 1960's. It has become a classic, a required read for any student of history who is interested in the topic of the early modern European witch hunts. Ginzburg reconstructs a narrative in which the notion of what it was to be a "witch" was fundamentally changed by the Friulian peasants' encounters with the Inquisition.
