Ways of Seeing Polar Bears in Fantasy Films, Fiction and Folklore
The polar bear (Ursus maritimus) has had many archetypal functions throughout time and across cultures and has been a key character within traditional tales and mythologies across the Arctic regions. Within Inuit and Greenlandic hunting cultures the polar bear is an important resource for food and clothing, but the bear has also held folkloric and spiritual significance.

Witchcraft and Folk Belief in the Age of Enlightenment
Taking an interdisciplinary perspective, Witchcraft and Folk Belief in the Age of Enlightenment represents the first in-depth investigation of Scottish witchcraft and witch belief post-1662, the period of supposed decline of such beliefs, an age which has been referred to as the 'long eighteenth century', coinciding with the Scottish Enlightenment. The late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries were undoubtedly a period of transition and red…
Bemused, Bothered and Bewildered
This chapter asks why was there so little debate about witchcraft in Scotland until the late seventeenth century. It is possible that one of the reasons may be the existence of James VI’s Daemonologie coupled with the fact that much use was made in Scotland of English publications on the subject since witch belief was, after all, a British as well as a Scottish phenomenon. Another concern is the issue of when or if witch belief died out, a subjec…

Its focus is on the mundane, but at the same time it takes heed of the people's experience of wars, famine, environmental disaster and other major causes of disturbance, an…

The Survival of Witchcraft Prosecutions and Witch Belief in South-West Scotland
During the era of the Scottish witch-hunts, Dumfries and Galloway was one of the last regions to initiate witch prosecutions, but it was also one of the most reluctant to completely surrender all belief in witches until a comparatively late date. In the late seventeeth and early eighteenth centuries south-west Scotland, better known for the persecution of covenanters, took the practice of witchcraft and charming very seriously indeed, and for per…
