When Criminal Psychology Becomes Literary Seduction

On October 18, 2026, Lydia Benecke will take the stage at the Haus der Springmaus in Bonn for an evening that intertwines science, storytelling, and societal discourse. Under the title Devil's Work or Witch Hunt?, a literary-psychological space opens where myths, images of fear, and the fascination with evil become newly readable.

Criminal Psychology as Narrative Art

Lydia Benecke is one of the most well-known voices regarding offender typologies, personality disorders, trauma-related disorders, and the psychological examination of manipulation. On her official biography page, she describes her focus in criminal psychological enlightenment; at the same time, her public work shows that she translates complex topics into clear, audience-friendly language. This gives rise to the unique literary quality of the evening: Not just a lecture, but an interpretation of reality.

A Theme Between Legend, Fear, and Present

Devil's Work or Witch Hunt? evokes associations with cultural projections, historical patterns of persecution, and the enduring power of collective narratives right from the title. Those who know Benecke do not expect a spectacular escalation for its own sake, but a precise analysis of the mechanisms with which societies narrate threats. This makes the evening equally interesting for readers and the curious: Here, literary education meets timely diagnostic clarity.
