JSTOR Articles on the History of Witchcraft, Witch Trials, and Folk Magic Beliefs
This is a partial of of articles on these subjects that can be found in the JSTOR archives. This is not exhaustive - this is just the portion I've saved for my own studies (I've read and referenced about a third of them so far) and I encourage readers and researchers to do their own digging. I recommend the articles by Ronald Hutton, Owen Davies, Mary Beth Norton, Malcolm Gaskill, Michael D. Bailey, and Willem de Blecourt as a place to start.
If you don't have personal access to JSTOR, you may be able to access the archive through your local library, university, museum, or historical society.

The collection is organized chronologically from Emperor Tenji (626-671) to Emperor Juntoku (1197-1242).

In 1620, at the age of 22 Gian Lorenzo Bernini was asked to make a mattress for the Hermaphrodite. He was paid sixty scudi for making the buttoned mattress upon which the Hermaphrodite reclines, so strikingly realistic that visitors are inclined to give it a testing prod.Around the world there are about twenty copies of Hermafrodite but only one is Bernini’s mattress and it’s at the Louvre.White marble sculpture, The Sleeping Hermaphrodite (Borghese), attributed to Gian Lorenzo Bernini (Naples 1598 – Rome 1680), circa 1700. According to the Roman poet, Ovid's Metamorphoses (4:285 - 288), Hermaphroditus was the son of Hermes and Aphrodite who refused the advances of one of Diana's nymphs, Salmacis. But the gods then answered her prayer that their bodies could be joined into one. The marble Hermaphrodite, lying on side with arms above the head, was unearthed near the Baths of Diocletian in Rome in about 1608. It was believed to be a Roman copy of a bronze mid-second century BC original by Polycles. It was presented to Cardinal Scipione Borghese who commissioned Bernini to restore it and make for it the marble mattress. It became one of the most admired statues in the Borghese Collection and was commonly reproduced in bronze and on a reduced scale in marble. In 1807 it was purchased with the bulk of the Borghese Collection by Napoleon and is now in the Louvre.

Jacob's Dream
Artist: Ferdinand Bol (1616–1680)
Genre: Religious Art
Date: circa 1642
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Collection: Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister
This work is linked to Genesis 28:12
In a dream an angel comes down a ladder and tells Jacob to return to the land of his father. Twenty years ago, Jacob had ran away from home after a run-in with his brother, Esau. Now the time has come for Jacob to leave his treacherous uncle Laban and go back home, says God's messenger.
Jacob leaves Laban, taking along his herd and women: Laban's daughters Lea and Rachel. Before he reaches Canaan, Laban catches up with them
