One Single Idol (Anne Pedersdotter Part 1‪)‬ Enchanted: The History of Magic & Witchcraft

    • History

On April 7, 1590 Anne Pedersdotter / Pedersdatter was burned for witchcraft in the city of Bergen, Norway. Remarkably, this was not the first time Anne had been tried for witchcraft. How did the wife of a prominent Lutheran clergyman find herself the defendant in multiple witch trials? In this episode, the first of a two-part series, we look to the Protestant Reformation for answers. 

Researched, written, and produced by Thomas Ignatius and Corinne Wieben with original music by Purple Planet.
