This dissertation aims to study the movement ofpersecution of people under the pretext of committing witchcraft: The Great EuropeanWitch-Hunt. This hunt took place mainly between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuriesalthough the persecutions started a little earlier. Despite what many people believe andthe large number of women persecuted, there was also a percentage of men judged underthe pretext of practicing magic. All of this led authors such as Brian P. Levack to carryout different studies on the patterns that made a person become accused of witchcraft.The aim is to analyse whether and to what extent the stereotype of the witch is portrayedin the Harry Potter saga through some characters.
