Tato bakalářská práce se zabývá tématem čarodějnic a vývojem jejich zobrazování v anglické literatuře. Zanalyzuji, jak se vyobrazení čarodějnic změnilo z děsivých čarodějnických procesů na zábavné pohádky pro děti. V praktické části této práce rozeberu povídku s názvem Čarodějnice Lois od anglické spisovatelky Elizabeth Gaskell, která je založena na skutečném příběhu salemských procesů a pohádku od spisovatele Roalda Dahla s názvem Čarodějnice.
