Summary "La sorcellerie" by Charles Louandre is a historical account written during the mid-19th century. This extensive exploration delves into the beliefs and practices surrounding witchcraft, magic, and the occult throughout history, particularly focusing on the Middle Ages and its transformation from ancient practices. Louandre discusses various forms of witchcraft, citing biblical references, cultural practices, and societal perceptions of sorcery from antiquity to the rise of Christianity. The beginning of "La sorcellerie" establishes a foundational understanding of the subject, categorizing the occult sciences and discussing their historical significance. Louandre emphasizes the universal belief in magic, its ties to religion and science, and its evolving nature over time. He draws parallels between ancient magicians and medieval sorcerers, contrasting their practices and societal roles. The opening lays the groundwork for the comprehensive analysis that follows, inviting readers into a deep and often dark exploration of human curiosity, desire for power, and the age-old fascination with the supernatural.
