Witchcraft narratives in Germany BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Social ActivistsLooks at why witch trials failed to gain momentum and escalate into 'witch crazes' in certain parts of early modern Europe. Exames the rich legal records of the German city of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, a city which experienced a very restrained pattern of witch trials and just one execution for witchcraft between 1561 and 1652. Explores the social and psychological conflicts that lay behind the making of accusations and confessions of witchcraft.
