Although EMoDiR’s day on demonology has come to an end 🥲, we’re delighted to share that another RSA panel, organized by Jan Machielsen, takes place tomorrow: "LIVING WITH DEAMONS: EMOTIONS, ENCOUNTERS, EXPERIENCES" ! ⏰ 9:00 👇 #RSA2026 #earlymodern
And now, in our final paper of a packed day here at #RSA2026, Kevin Cochard examines a corpus of french “canards” by cataloguing the various forms of encounters with devils throughout the long seventeenth century.
Jordan Ivie, arguing that early modern attitudes towards demonic familiars are a direct reflection of early modern attitudes towards gender itself. #RSA2026
Up first here at EMoDiR’s final panel at the RSA, Sarah Richman will talk about “Marlowe's Dancing Devils in Doctor Faustus.” #RSA2026
⏰ 16:30 #RSA2026
EMoDiR closes the day with a panel on GENDERED AND STAGED REPRESENTATIONS OF DEAMONS!
🔊 Speakers: Sarah Richman, Jordan Ivie, Kevin Cochard | 🪑Stefano Villani
📍Hilton San Francisco Union Square, Tower 3, 4th floor
Will you join us?
David Lee Vaughan III explores how Marchamont Nedham used Satanic imagery during the English Civil Wars to demonize opponents and shape political discourse in the 1640s. #RSA2026
Ana Sáez-Hidalgo examines demonizing portrayals of Elizabeth I in Catholic polemic. From exile texts to images of the Queen in hell, the paper shows how diabolical imagery challenged her religious and political authority after 1570. #RSA2026
Bradley Mollmann examines demonization and the collapse of social trust in early modern Spain. Centered on 1609—Basque witch hunts and the Morisco expulsion—the paper links accusations of diabolism to crises of authority and cohesion within the “General Crisis of the Seventeenth Century #RSA2026
14:30 #RSA2026
EMoDiR’s second panel explores THE POLITICS OF DEMONIZATION in the early modern world.
🔊 Speakers: Bradley Mollmann, Ana Sáez-Hidalgo & David Lee Vaughan III | 🪑Christine Jane Kooi
📍 Hilton San Francisco Union Square, Tower 3, 4th floor
Third paper of our #EMoDiR panel at #RSA2026: Christine Kooi, “The Devil Congratulates Charles IX.”
A biting 1572 Protestant Pasquillus imagines Satan praising the king after the St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre—searing satire that sharpens confessional polemic in the later Reformation.
