Our Myth (Anne Pedersdotter Part 2)

from Enchanted: The History of Magic & Witchcraft · host Corinne Wieben

A play, an opera, a film, three witches... and Benito Mussolini. Today, we examine why three twentieth-century works, Hans Wiers-Jenssen's Anne Pedersdotter, Ottorino Respighi's La Fiamma, and Carl Theodore Dreyer's Day of Wrath, were inspired by the life and witch trials of Anne Pedersdotter and why they all got her story so, so wrong.  Researched, written, and produced by Thomas Ignatius and Corinne Wieben, featuring the voice talents of Joshua Summit and Sarah Tomei with original music by Purple Planet.    For more on these works, see:  Anne Pedersdotter: A Drama in Four Acts  La Fiamma  Day of Wrath  Episode sourcesSupport the showEnchantedPodcast.netBluesky/enchantedpodcast.net
