Muggles and Wizards: The Evolutionary Process
An Introduction to Muggle Studies
(preface)
- Introduces Muggle Studies as a subject. In summary, mentions that Muggle Studies is an important discipline that seeks to inform the students not only of the comparisons between Muggle and Wizarding culture (although, it claims that this is an interesting but widely researched field), but also to highlight the importance of preserving Wizarding culture by looking at the evolution of Muggle culture and their effect on Wizarding society as a whole.
PART ONE - A History of Wizards According To Muggles
(covered between chapters 1-4)
- Focuses on the folklore surrounding witchcraft and wizardry as experienced in British Muggle culture. Particularly focuses on the negative aspects of this folklore -- by chapter four, will have covered ducking, burning at the stake and other medieval methods used against alleged wizards.
