SUMMARY:The History of Witchcraft & Women: Magic\, rituals and the patriarc
 hy
LOCATION:RNLI College
DESCRIPTION:Uncover the fascinating history of witchcraft and how patriarch
 al ideas shaped the image of a witch. Followed by Q&A.\n\n“What else is 
 woman but a foe to friendship\, an inescapable punishment\, a necessary ev
 il…”\n\nSo claimed the 15th-century writers of the Malleus Maleficarum
 \, or ‘Hammer of the Witches\,’ a handbook for identifying women thoug
 ht to be conspiring with the Devil. How did women come to be seen this way
 ? And what impact did this publication have on the lasting stereotype of t
 he witch as a harmful\, evil woman?\n\nIn this talk\, Dr Julia Phillips ex
 amines the circumstances that created the malevolent female witch and why 
 she became such a powerful figure. We will trace witchcraft from ancient t
 imes to today\, showing how women were cast as disruptive forces in their 
 communities. The talk concludes by considering the role of women in 21st-c
 entury witchcraft\, contrasting it with Early modern Europe.\n\nDoors open
  at 7pm\, talk starts at 7:30pm - come down early to grab a good seat!\n\n
