Sorry, This Event is in the past!
A fascinating insight into why people believed in witchcraft (and maybe still do!)
Professor Darren Oldridge is a specialist in sixteenth and seventeenth-century religious history. His interests include witchcraft and the Devil, the supernatural, and the religious context of the English Civil Wars. A recurring theme of his work is the rationality underpinning apparently strange beliefs.
More broadly, he is interested in the relationship between poetry and film and the past.
