Description

The witch: a source of terror, or an emblem of power which frees women to live beyond the limits imposed on them by society? Who was historically accused of witchcraft, often meeting violent ends?

Mona Chollet takes three archetypes from historic witch-hunts, and examines how far women today have the same charges levelled against them: independent women; women who choose not to have children; women who reject the idea that to age is a terrible thing.
