So I've noticed that a lot of people think that the grimoire/spellbook/whatever was given the name Book of Shadows because it was "kept hidden during the Burning Times", but it's just dawned on me that during this time, the majority of Pagans were country folk and peasants who most likely couldn't read or write. So they most likely didn't keep a "Book of Shadows". Can anyone give some validation/their opinion on this?
