Résumé
Cunning Folk transports us to a time when magic was used to solve life's day-to-day problems - as well as some of deadly importance.'A brilliant book, written with wit and vigour' MALCOLM GASKILL, author of The Ruin of All Witches'Absolutely fascinating' IAN MORTIMER, author of The Time-Traveller's Guide to Medieval EnglandIt's 1600 and you've lost your precious silver spoons, or maybe they've been stolen.
Perhaps your child has a fever. Or you're facing trial. Maybe you're looking for love or escaping a husband. What do you do? In medieval and early modern Europe, your first port of call might well have been cunning folk: practitioners of magic who were a common, even essential part of daily life, at a time when the supernatural was surprisingly mundane. Charming, thought-provoking and based on original research, Cunning Folk is an immersive reconstruction of a bygone world by an expert historian, as well as a commentary on the beauty and bafflement of being human.'I adore Cunning Folk.
A truly fascinating and human book' Ruth Goodman, author of How To Be a Tudor'Packed with vivid historical anecdotes, this is an intriguing insight into the magical lives of past people and the history of our own superstitions today' Marion Gibson, author of Witchcraft'Fascinating .
