💫📕🌟"Starting from a short analysis of some basic problems in the interpretation of European witchcraft, it proceeds to a study of the shifting denominational views regarding witches and the growth of Catholic orthodoxy..." (1972, 332 p.)
This is turning out to be a pretty interesting book. It explores the intertwining of Korean court politics and imperial rivalries of China, Russia, and Japan in shaping modern Korea.
