Authors' 2025 Plans: Julia Phillips on Witchcraft History
I’m interviewing authors on what books they have coming out this year and their other plans. Here I talk to Dr Julia Phillips about her scholarly history book on evidence of witchcraft in the 19th century, which I’m very much looking forward to reading:
Q: What book have you got coming out next in 2025?
A: The Persistence of Witchcraft in Victorian England
Q: What’s it about?
A: How witchcraft continued to be a presence and evolve in the 19th century.
Q: When will it be published?
A: The date’s still to be finalised by the publisher, Routledge.
Q: What event or events are you planning around the launch?
A: This is still to be arranged, but hopefully will include events at both Treadwell’s and Atlantis bookshops in London.
Q: Apart from your book, what are you currently working on?
A: Here are some of the events I’m doing:
- A series of talks entitled ’The History and Endurance of Witchcraft’ (in person, livestream, and video catchup).
- An online course about witchcraft – I am taking the session ‘20th century to the modern day.’
- Courses in Hermetic Magic for Treadwell’s.
- Talks for various organisations on subjects related to witchcraft and magic, including the Theosophical Society, U3A, Probus, WI.
Q: Is there anything else you would like to mention, including any of your previous books?
A: My previous books are out of print, but I have a chapter in Essays on Women in Western Esotericism: Beyond Seeresses and Sea Priestesses (Madeline Montalban: Magus of the Morning Star), published by Palgrave Macmillan, and A Century of James Frazer’s The Golden Bough : Shaking the Tree, Breaking the Bough, (James Frazer and the Press), published by Routledge.
