(no subject)

I'm taking a quiet moment before I start gathering books on witchcraft. Tonight my class will be meeting the Malleus Malleficarum and I have no doubt it will win friends and influence people in the same way it does every time I teach the subject. We'll mainly be looking at the Alice Kyteler case, to be honest. Maybe we'll talk about how important printing was in populating idiot witchcraft notions. And maybe we'll look at something else entirely. I never know with this class: we go to some extraordinary places.
