Credulity, Superstition and Fanaticism, 1762

Credulity, Superstition and Fanaticism is a satirical print by the English artist William Hogarth. It ridicules secular and religious credulity, and lampoons the exaggerated religious enthusiasm of the Methodist movement. The print was originally engraved in 1761, with the title Enthusiasm Delineated, but never published. Hogarth reworked the engraving before publishing it on March 15, 1762 as Credulity, Superstition and Fanaticism: A Medley. The print includes visual references to more than a dozen reputed instances of witchcraft or possession in England.
