Doctoral DissertationAuthor Note:
After the academic year 1988-89 and having compiled an exhaustive bibliography on folk magic and belief for a graduate seminar led by Professor Alan Dundes, then Chair of Folklore at University of California at Berkeley, my interest shifted from the archaic medieval material to the somewhat more recent beliefs and practices of the last four centuries in Sweden. This work took me to Sweden during the academic year 1992-93 for primary research in folklore archives and museum collections. During that time, I was in residence at the Institut for folklivsforskning vid Stockholms universitet, under the careful guidance of Barbro Klein and Ake Daun. Most days were spent in the archives of the Nordic Museum (Nordiska museet), sorting through the file boxes that contained the manuscripts I was studying, those compendia of folk magical practice known as black art books (Sw. svartkonstbocker). I also traveled to Goteborg, to Uppsala, and to various district and county museums and folklore archives to retrieve more data and locate more examples of these manuscripts. The network of connections I established was extensive, and many works were generously made available to me that scholars have not had access to before or since.
