Talk | The Devil in Stuart England with Professor Darren Oldridge
Saturday 26 October, 2 – 3pm | The Commandery
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.
If you’d like to explore the rest of The Commandery, you can purchase half-price day admission (£4.50, usually £9) from the shop on the day of the talk.
