Witchcraft: A History in Thirteen Trials

This is a global history of witch trials. In this you will navigate through thirteen significant events across Europe, Africa, and the Americas, revealing entrenched patterns of demonization and conspiratorial thinking that have shaped human history. It features both well-known trials, such as the Salem witch trials, and lesser-known incidents, including one on Vardø island in Norway during the 1620s, where an indigenous Sami woman faced murder accusations, and France's last witch trial in 1731, which centered around a young woman and her confessor turned cult leader.
