Talk| The Devil in Stuart England with Professor Darren Oldridge

Halloween is a good time to think about the prince of darkness.

In the age of the English Civil War, he loomed as a powerful and terrifying figure.

In this presentation, Professor Darren Oldridge invites you to turn the pages of seventeenth-century books that describe his various manifestations: from a spirit in the mind to a physical creature that could annihilate sinners.

Tickets £7
