The enclosure esotericism "end of millennium" is an invitation to study and reflection on the dark cultural boundaries of humanity that preceded us. This is the purpose of this social history of magic. More than a nostalgic contemplation of a reality that should never occur again, and of course very far from any attempt to update modes or principles, this work questions the reasons for each historical moment that produced the movements now included under the concept of magic: from the study of the surprising movements of the stars in Chaldea and Babylon to the infamous witch-burning in an attempt to spiritual genocide of a society that after more than 1500 years of civilization "Christian" beliefs still attached to "idolatrous" or "satanic". This is a seminal work for understanding the cultural environment in which they developed the story of Western civilization, the very profuse documentation is not able to overwhelm or hide vital passion that captivates the human becoming the author.
