Abstract: Contemporary scholars of witchcraft analyze the intellectual and historical complexities of European witchcraft by focusing mainly on two types of sources: witchcraft trials and demonological treatises. This issue proposes to explore a variegated cartography of the literary witch who cannot be seen as a simple avatar of theological and juridical discourses. The articles focus on the multilayered and uneven exchange between demonology, medicine, and literary sources alluding to witches.
