✍ History, Witchcraft, Britain & Ireland
Broadcaster and journalist Ruth Wishart sits down with writers Zoe Venditozzi, Claire Mitchell, and Steven Veerapen to discuss all things witches and witchcraft.
In How to Kill a Witch: A Guide For The Patriarchy, Mitchell & Venditozzi take a deep dive into Scotland of the 1500s. If you were a woman at that time, there’s a good chance you or someone you knew would be tried as a witch. Over 4,000 were accused and many suffered grizzly executions. Inspired to correct this historic injustice, the writers seek to understand why the trials exploded to such a degree.
Meanwhile, in Steven Veerapen’s Witches, he traces the history of witchcraft from the mass trials in the late sixteenth century to the decline of witch-hunting in the early eighteenth century. Based on documents and the latest historical research, he explores what caused the mass panics about alleged witches and what ultimately led to the relegation of the witch—and the witch-hunter—to the realm of fantasy.
