Kritik
"This is a well-structured work that offers valuable and important contributions to our understanding of the uneven Christianization process in European countries during the seventeenth century-good scholarly work, indeed." (Rune Blix Hagen, Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 70 (4), 2017)

"Toivo (Univ. of Tampere, Finland) is interested in the whole complex of witchcraft, lived religion, and formal churchmanship, constructing a seamless whole to gain the full picture of religious life. ... This specialized study will support collections in religious studies and the history of northern Europe. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students/faculty." (D. S. Azzolina, Choice, Vol. 54 (3), November, 2016)mehr
