Performing Magic in the Pre-Modern North cover

This book addresses the varied performances of magic in medieval and early modern Scandinavia. It provides a comprehensive review of the rapidly expanding field of European magic and specifically discusses performances of magic in the pre-modern north. By employing innovating methodologies and covering a wide temporal range, the book offers a uniquely interdisciplinary approach to the study of magic in the pre-modern North. In addition, the minority-driven contributions, written by an international group of dynamic and diverse scholars, complement one another to highlight the many multicultural realities of the pre-modern North.
