Sophia Rausch: Brooms and Feminism

This book explores the witch as a cultural and feminist figure whose significance reverberates into the present. Central to this analysis are two key sources: a dataset from 2003 that challenges established historical narratives and a 2024 dissertation offering a feminist reinterpretation of the witch. Together, these works illuminate not only inaccuracies in historical accounts but also how these narratives continue to shape modern understandings of the witch.
