Edited by Dorothea Fenn-Calder of the University of Exeter, The Witch's Commonplace collects and annotates a selection of manuscript sources documenting the practices of cunning folk, wise women, and village healers in early modern England. The volume draws on previously unpublished material from parish records, court depositions, and private commonplace books to illuminate the practical magic of ordinary people.
