The Crime of Crimes: Demonology and Politics in France, 1560-1620
Jonathan L. Pearl
Most historians have described the witchcraft phenomenon as one of tremendous violence. In France, dozens of books, pamphets and tracts, depicting witchcraft as the most horrible of crimes, were published and widely distributed. Yet, in this book, Jonathan Pearl shows that France carried out relatively few executions for witchcraft.
