"Il martello delle streghe" Book Presentation at the Gottarelli Foundation
  Conversation with Nicola De Vita
On Wednesday, November 11th, 2026, at 9:00 PM, the Fondazione Gottarelli Hall in Imola will host a compelling cultural event: the presentation of the book "Il martello delle streghe" (The Hammer of Witches).
This work offers an intense and well-documented exploration into the historical, social, and cultural roots of one of the most complex and controversial phenomena in human history: the witch trials and the Inquisition.
The volume delves deeply into the historical texts, social dynamics, and collective imagination surrounding this dark era. The evening will not only analyze the past events that defined an epoch but will also examine the striking modern relevance of social marginalization and psychological mechanisms that continue to persist in contemporary society.
This event represents a significant opportunity for history buffs, anthropology enthusiasts, and cultural scholars to engage in a stimulating debate within Imola's prestigious cultural venue.
The event will take place at the Sala Fondazione Gottarelli, located at Via C. Sforza 13 in Imola. Admission is completely free, subject to seating availability.
