'Every witch uses her magic differently. I use mine to heal people, while others ...'
'What do the others do!? Are there many different types of witches!?'
'Oh yes! Many ...'
Join Lindsay, a young and curious 19th-century lass, as
she meets Biddy Early, the famous 'wise woman of County Clare', and learns all about the magickal arts – from which plants can be used to make healing poultices and potions, to how people dealt with the social and political stigma of practising witchcraft.
Biddy Early, who lived from 1798–1874 in Ireland, was by no means the first-ever witch, but she was
the first to appear on the historical record. Before her, fears and superstitions surrounding practitioners of 'the nameless art' were too strong. It is said that Biddy took an apprenticeship with the 'good folk',
sidhe or faeries, when she was very young, and it was from them that
she learnt her skill as a healer.
Never one to accept monetary payment for the help she offered, Biddy would often swap home-brewed alcohol for her services, which in turn made her ramshackle cottage in Feakle a hub for the local community. When
her little corner of the county drew the attention of the Catholic Church and the local authorities, things became very difficult for this unusual woman…
Encompassing
self-empowerment, feminism, dealing with stigma and eco-spirituality, as well as plant magic, traditions, and green wisdom,
Witchcraft: A Graphic History is a fresh take on an endlessly fascinating subject.
