But how much are we victims of literary manipulation by these texts? The pamphlets are presented in annotated format, to allow the reader to decide. Some of the texts appear in print for the first time in three centuries, whilst others are newly edited to give a clearer picture of sources. 606 $aWitchcraft$zEngland$xHistory$y16th century$vSources 606 $aWitchcraft$zEngland$xHistory$y17th century$vSources 615 0$aWitchcraft$xHistory 615 0$aWitchcraft$xHistory 676 $a133.43094209031 701 $aGibson$b Marion$f1970-$0911901 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810632403321 996 $aEarly modern witches$94077234 997 $aUNINA
