"She's a witch!"  was a cry heard from the fifteenth to the eighteenth the centuries in many European territories. Religious people had developed a heightened concern with the phenomenon of witchcraft, seeing a new sect hostile to humanity.  Tragically, although witches did not empirically exist, many innocent people suffered for their alleged crimes.  This course will cover how Europeans defined and treated their accused witches, within the context of political, economic, social, and cultural relationships.
