Course Description

From the fifteenth to the seventeenth centuries, Europe was the scene of an extraordinary and unique historical phenomenon: the Witch Craze. In massive hunts and trials, state and religious authorities prosecuted and executed thousands of people, most of them women, for witchcraft. In this talk, you will learn who the witches were, why and how they were hunted, and what happened during a witch trial.
