«Brujería: Una historia en trece juicios» is the historical essay by Marion Gibson, published by Siruela in paperback (388 pages, in Spanish).
The essay reconstructs thirteen witchcraft trials in Europe, Africa and the United States over seven centuries. Gibson analyses cases such as those of Helena Scheuberin or Joan Wright to show how misogyny and fear fuelled the witch hunts and how that demonological idea persists in modern accusations of a «caza de brujas».
Part of the El Ojo del Tiempo collection (no. 159). Translated by Victoria León; original title: «Witchcraft. A History in Thirteen Trials».
For readers of historical non-fiction interested in witchcraft, misogyny and the mechanisms of social persecution.
