This significant work reflects on two decades since the release of a transformative text in the study of witchcraft and magic. The author, Professor Ronald Hutton, has played a crucial role in shaping modern understandings of these subjects, and this volume celebrates the evolution of that discourse. Scholars and practitioners alike contribute insights into contemporary practices, intertwining history and personal narratives that highlight the living traditions of witchcraft.
Exploring Themes of magic and modernity, contributors delve into the ways these practices intersect with societal changes. They examine historical influences that have shaped current perceptions and traditions, offering a nuanced picture of the complexities surrounding witchery today.
With an array of perspectives, the book not only honors Hutton's initial contributions but also pushes the boundaries of the discussion forward. It invites readers to reflect on how historical context continues to influence contemporary practices and belief systems.
Ultimately, this collection embodies a vibrant dialogue within the community, as it bridges the past and the present, celebrating the relevance and resilience of magic in modern society.
