The book "The Discovery of Witchcraft" was written by Reginald Scot and was published in 1584. This is an early study in the field of magic and sorcery, in which the author reveals the secrets and deceptions of magicians and frankly destroys the popular magical practices of the time. The book became an important document in the development of attitudes towards magic and ways of discovering it. Reginald Scot analyzes in detail the various aspects of witchcraft and collects in one place a wide range of magical techniques and tricks, revealing them and proving them to be deceptive. This book remains an important source for the study of the history of magic and demonstrates the initial attempts at a rational explanation of supernatural phenomena.
