Reinventing Traditions is the author's doctoral thesis, which spent years researching the origins of neo-pagan witchcraft (Wicca) in post-war England and its subsequent transplantation to the Americas, with an emphasis on the changes that took place and the new guises that emerged when this religion crossed the Atlantic, first to the United States and then to Brazil. To realise this project, the author relied on the collaboration of renowned Wiccans, both English and Brazilian, some of them directly linked to the first groups of witches that emerged in England in the 1950s.
