Description
Witchcraft and the Modern Roman Catholic Church by Francis Young explores how the contemporary Roman Catholic church views witchcraft. This Element examines the hierarchical and clerical understandings of witchcraft within the church, including its impact in parts of the world where belief in witchcraft is deeply ingrained. The book also considers the revival of interest in witchcraft and cursing among some Catholic demonologists and exorcists. It asks whether a global church can adopt a coherent approach to a phenomenon that is perceived so differently across cultures. This Element provides insight into the complexities of witchcraft within the Roman Catholic church, highlighting the challenges faced by clergy in addressing this issue in diverse contexts.
