This book title, Religion and the Decline of Magic (Studies in Popular Beliefs in Sixteenth and Seventeenth-Century England), ISBN: 9780140137446, by Keith Thomas, published by Penguin UK (January 1, 2003) is available in paperback. Keith Thomas's classic analysis of beliefs held on every level of English society begins with the collapse of the medieval Church and ends with the changing intellectual atmosphere around 1700, when science and rationalism began to challenge the older systems of belief. At the same time the Protestant Reformation attempted to take the magic out of religion, and scientists were developing new explanations of the universe. Witchcraft, astrology, divination, and every kind of popular magic flourished in England during the 16th and 17th centuries, from the belief that a blessed amulet could prevent the assaults of the Devil to the use of the same charms to recover stolen goods.
