Light No Smithfield Fires - attitudes to witchcraft in Victorian England - Brief Article

Moran, Maureen F. "'Light No Smithfield Fires': Some Victorian Attitudes to Witchcraft." Journal of Popular Culture. 33(4):123-151. Spring 2000. The Victorians considered themselves far too sophisticated to believe in witchcraft, but their art and literature are haunted by images of witches. Moran sees this as a reaction to the changing roles of women.
