Über dieses Buch

Superstition across the nations - the omens, the witch trials, the charms and the astrologers - gathered by a Scottish antiquary who quotes his sources and lets them look ridiculous on their own. This edition is bound with sixty plates of paintings by Léopold Burthe, Robert Smirke, John Fulleylove and Eugène Delacroix, dated 1520 to 1912, on Delphi and the journey to Greece.
