Beyond All Human Reason

Part of the broader witch hunts that swept across Europe during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Basque witch trials unfolded much like their counterparts elsewhere. However, these witch trials were halted by an unlikely hero: a member of the Spanish Inquisition. In this episode, I bring you the story of the Basque witch trials and the inquisitor who put a stop to them.  Researched, written, and produced by Corinne Wieben, with original music by Purple Planet.  Episode sources  Support the showEnchantedPodcast.netBluesky/enchantedpodcast.net
