Reviews

Carlo Ginzburg's 'The Night Battles' is a remarkable tale of witchcraft, folk culture, and persuasion in early modern Europe. A 'tour-de-force' of reconstruction, building out of scattered and fragmentary sources a whole world for the reader to inhabit. --Anthony Pagden, 'London Review of Books'
