Women & Christian Witch Hunts
During The Reformation :
During the Reformation era, persecution of women whom the
Catholic Church perceived to be "witches" was at an all-time
high. This 12 page paper examines sociopolitical issues from
that time as well as specific theological views on witchery and
witchcraft. It is argued that fear and ignorance towards women
(i.e., "the transformation of the witch from wanton woman to
bad wife") led to much of the scare and confusion. A final
section also compares the persecution of women as witches
during the Reformation with that of Jewish people during the
same period. Bibliography lists 7 sources. Witchcra.wps
