Details Toshio Ohnuki, a medieval historian at Tokyo Metropolitan University, supervised the translation. This book not only clarifies the discrepancies between 11 discourses on medieval Europe and historical facts, but also explains the formation process of their images. With an extensive bibliography and translations of primary historical materials, this book is also intended for beginning scholars. As an expert on the witch trials, I participated in the translation project.
