Description
An Essay on Demonology, Ghosts and Apparitions by James Thacher is a collection of material involving witch trials, charlatan medicine quackery, and tales of ghosts and phantoms. It predominantly seeks to dispel such stories and practices, while proclaiming the glory of then-orthodox Christian religion, likening persecution to the primitive and illiberal.
In this sense it is important for the skeptic and the occultist alike; for the former as a source of information to refute wanton superstition, and for the latter as a sort of warning against taking too seriously the often uninformed orthodox opinions of any era, which later become past eras- indeed, this book promotes bleeding and other practices as “modern” (as opposed to the “outdated” content largely spoken of)- a practice which has itself been now outmoded.
