State Building and the Search for Order

Mr. Smith AP European History Block 5 Vocabulary Chapter 15 State Building and the Search for Order in the Seventeenth Century Witches: Witchcraft existed for centuries as a traditional village culture. Medieval church connected witchcraft to the devil, making it a heresy. Establishment of the Inquisition in the 13th c increased prosecutions and executions. Accusations against witches who had ?sworn allegiance to the devil? attended sabbats and used ?evil incantations or potions?. Old women were the main target of this persecution. Religious uncertainty and social conditions caused this craze.
