Dr Charlotte Millar and Associate Professor Jenny Spinks will explore the visual culture of witchcraft through works from the Prints and Drawings Collection, including Witch riding backwards on a goat, after Albrecht Dürer and expand on how the Malleus shaped perceptions and helped drive the spread of witch trials over time.
