"Imagine the scene,-a wide heath, often in the neighbourhood of an old Celtic dolmen, at the edge of a wood . . . In the background the Sorceress set up her Satan, a great wooden Satan, black and shaggy . . . A darkling countenance, that each saw under a different aspect. While some beheld only an incarnate terror, others were moved by the haughty melancholy that seemed to enfold the Exile of Eternity. . ." In this classic work on the history of Witchcraft and Devil Worship, Jules Michelet presents a fascinating and romantic account of the Witch, the Priestess and Bride of Satan. First published as "La Sorcière" in 1862, Michelet's work has gone on to be a primary influence on the resurgence of Witchcraft in the modern world, giving inspiration to influential occultists since the early 20th century.
