520    "How was magic practised in medieval times? How did it 
       relate to the diverse beliefs and practices that 
       characterised this fascinating period? In Magic in the 
       Middle Ages Richard Kieckhefer surveys the growth and 
       development of magic in medieval times. He examines its 
       relation to religion, science, philosophy, art, literature
       and politics before introducing us to the different types 
       of magic that were used, the kinds of people who practised
       magic, and the reasoning behind their beliefs. In addition,
       he shows how magic served as a point of contact between 
       the popular and elite classes, how the reality of magical 
       beliefs is reflected in the fiction of medieval literature,
       and how the persecution of magic and witchcraft led to 
       changes in the law. This 2000 book places magic at the 
       crossroads of medieval culture, shedding light on many 
       other aspects of life in the middle ages." --Publisher's
