Balthasar Bekker (1634–1698) was a Dutch minister and theologian, best known for his controversial work on the nature of witchcraft and the supernatural. His most notable book, "The World Bewitched" (originally "De Betoverde Weereld"), published in 1691, argued against the prevailing belief in witchcraft and superstition, advocating for a rational and theological perspective that dismissed the idea of witches and the traditional practices associated with them.
