“…38 According to Katharine Hodgkin, gender re-entered the witchcraft topic by way of psychoanalysis and in a trend going back to Lyndal Roper's works, who I will take as my main interlocutor in what follows. 39 Lyndal Roper, as well as Diane Purkiss or Deborah Willis, has argued that fantasy elements of devil encounter-narratives by witches were rooted in their life experiences, reflecting profound anxieties surrounding poverty, sickness, childbirth, parenting or housekeeping grounded on gender dynamics. 40 They understand devil's accounts as narratives that held unconscious wishes and fantasies, that expressed repressed emotions at the time.…”

“…While witchcraft was and remains a highly gendered crime, the reason for this is more complex than simple fear of women and their power, or the accusation of large numbers of midwives. 11 Fourth, the complexity of the witch-hunt in Europe has been recognized and described.

También se encuentra el estudio Gender, Mind and Body: Feminism and Psychoanalysis (Hodgkin, 2007) en el cual se explica cómo el género femenino ha ocupado una posición paradójica en la historiografía de la brujería y cómo el ser mujer, reflejado a través de sus cuerpos, era indicador de ser bruja en Europa, así como ver la sexualidad y el reconocimiento de su cuerpo como un campo desconocido.…”
