Descrizione

This paper highlights how, in the early modern age, social and cultural categories usually related to individuals charged with witchcraft are prone to distinctive variables. Our contribute will deal with some meaningful cases that took place in Central-North Italy between the XVI and XVII centuries, whilst comparing stereotypes frequently linked to witches by specific literature to documentary facts. As such stereotypes are not always matched by records, we proposed to analyze the dialectic between stereotypes and anomalies in early modern witchlore, turning to prosopographical models and IT tools.
