Absolutely fascinating and complex. The narration is clear and pleasant to listen to and Karlsen’s scholarship is still deeply relevant. Her illumination of the social circumstances leading to early American conceptions of witchcraft is nuanced and refuses to be reductive, which is refreshing as so many will describe witchcraft trials and outbreaks as being only due to one or two cultural circumstances. Karlsen is a brilliant historian as well as a wonderful story teller. Absolutely excellent.
