The image of a female witch, with broom and black cat serving the devil, is ingrained in pop culture. But where did this stereotype come from? The concept of witchcraft emerged slowly over the course of several centuries as a result of theological, intellectual, and cultural changes in ideas about demons and heresy.
Uncover the fascinating history of witchcraft and how patriarchal ideas shaped the image of a witch. Followed by Q&A.
