January 16 , 2020

Humans have long believed in magic and that certain individuals, such as witches, can manipulate energy and the world around them. So why did magic become feared in medieval Europe to the point that witches were persecuted on a mass scale? In this class, we’ll explore the roots of magic and witchcraft in the west, how beliefs developed over time, and the turning point of the witch trials that vilified the practice of magic. We will also examine how the stereotype of the witch was created and its continuing impact on our understanding of witches and witchcraft today.  Tickets and info
