Their effects upon the main character are examined, illustrating the author's moral stand against the use of magic and superstition; the same attitude which is shown to be reflected in his other novels. The various functions of these beliefs and practices within the novel itself are also determined, and it is suggested that Grimmelshausen's employment of magic and superstition advances the didactic purpose of the novel in several important ways.</p>	en_US
