Product Information

In 1510, nine men were tried in the Archbishop's Court in York for attempting to find and extract a treasure on the moor near Mixindale through necromantic magic. Two decades later, William Neville and his magician were arrested by Thomas Cromwell for having engaged in a treasonous combination of magic practices and prophecy surrounding the death of William's older brother, Lord Latimer, and the king. In The Magic of Rogues , Frank Klaassen and Sharon Hubbs Wright present the legal documents about and open a window onto these fascinating investigations of magic practitioners in early Tudor England. Set side by side with sixteenth- and seventeenth-century texts that describe the sorts of magic those practitioners performed, these documents are translated, contextualized, and presented in language accessible to nonspecialist readers. Their analysis reveals how magicians and cunning folk operated in extended networks in which they exchanged knowledge, manuscripts, equipment, and even clients; foregrounds magicians' encounters with authority in ways that separate them from traditional narratives about witchcraft and witch trials; and suggests that the regulation and punishment of magic in the Tudor period were comparatively and perhaps surprisingly gentle. Incorporating the study of both intellectual and legal sources, The Magic of Rogues presents a well-rounded picture of illicit learned magic in early Tudor England. Engaging and accessible, this book will appeal to anyone seeking to understand the intersection of medieval legal history, religion, magic, esotericism, and Tudor history.

Reviews
"The Magic of Rogues undoubtedly enhances our understanding of early Tudor magic, reinforced by a general introduction to the nature of magic in the period and its relationship with the authorities."-Ronald Hutton, author of The Witch: A History of Fear, from Ancient Times to the Present "With its innovative combination of magical texts and legal documents, this is an important research contribution and offers an excellent set of annotated sources for teaching not just about magic but also about power, belief, and ambition in Tudor England."-Jonathan Barry, author of Witchcraft and Demonology in South-West England, 1640-1789, "With its innovative combination of magical texts and legal documents, this is an important research contribution and offers an excellent set of annotated sources for teaching not just about magic but also about power, belief, and ambition in Tudor England." --Jonathan Barry,author of Witchcraft and Demonology in South-West England, 1640-1789, "A worthwhile read for specialists and non-specialists alike, The Magic of Rogues utilizes its limited page count well to question and deconstruct myths surrounding magic use, magic practitioners, and their reception in the courts and public life of early Tudor England." --Lindsay Church Ceræ: An Australasian Journal of Medieval and Early Modern Studies, " The Magic of Rogues undoubtedly enhances our understanding of early Tudor magic, reinforced by a general introduction to the nature of magic in the period and its relationship with the authorities." --Ronald Hutton, author of The Witch: A History of Fear, from Ancient Times to the Present, "With its innovative combination of magical texts and legal documents, this is an important research contribution and offers an excellent set of annotated sources for teaching not just about magic but also about power, belief, and ambition in Tudor England." --Jonathan Barry, author of Witchcraft and Demonology in South-West England, 1640-1789, "This short scholarly study has two key virtues: it teases apart two muddled-up historiographies and unites two unnecessarily distanced ones. First, it clears a distinct space in the historical record for practitioners of magic, who as religious and legal deviants too often get absorbed into the academic discussion of witches and witch-trials. Secondly, it exploits the fact that 16th-century magical texts tell us little about the people who used them, while legal records of prosecution -- magic was first criminalised under the 1542 Witchcraft Act -- tell us a lot about the magicians but frustratingly little about the technicalities of their offences." --Malcolm Gaskill Fortean Times, "Klaassen and Wright deftly lay bare the mechanics of both the prosecution and the practice of the most transgressive forms of magic on the eve of the Reformation. The Magic of Rogues will be essential reading for anyone interested in the social or legal history of supernatural belief in the early modern world." --Francis Young Journal of British Studies, " The Magic of Rogues undoubtedly enhances our understanding of early Tudor magic, reinforced by a general introduction to the nature of magic in the period and its relationship with the authorities." --Ronald Hutton,author of The Witch: A History of Fear, from Ancient Times to the Present, "Klaassen and Wright deftly lay bare the mechanics of both the prosecution and the practice of the most transgressive forms of magic on the eve of the Reformation. The Magic of Rogues will be essential reading for anyone interested in the social or legal history of supernatural belief in the early modern world." --Francis Young, Journal of British Studies, "This book is a fascinating contribution to historical scholarship on European magic." --Patricia Sophie Mayer Religious Studies Review, "This short scholarly study has two key virtues: it teases apart two muddled-up historiographies and unites two unnecessarily distanced ones.
