The ideological background of the tribunals is studied on the basis of works written by priests and theologians, reflecting the attitude of spiritual authorities towards the devil and witches. The main focus of work, however, is the process of shaping witchcraft accusations. Narratives of the participants of the trials tell stories of bewitchment and help shed light on the situation that led people to state their suspicions and later their accusations of witchcraft. Finally, the micro-history approach is used to study a case from one Volhynian village which helps to compare attitude towards two "female crimes" in Ukrainian courts and to better understand the nature of popular witchcraft beliefs in early modern Ukraine.
