Wicca Magickal Beginnings
A Study of the Possible Origins of the Rituals and Practices found in this modern tradition of pagan Witchcraft and Magick

By Sorita d’Este & David Rankine

The origins of the Wiccan Tradition have long been a subject of debate amongst practitioners and scholars alike. Did Gerald Gardner invent the tradition? Is Wicca a survival of a British folk magick system? Could it be a continuation of a European tradition of Pagan Witchcraft? Might it be that it evolved from Victorian ceremonial magick, or perhaps it is the modern manifestation of the medieval Grimoire Tradition?
