The Witch of Edmonton is an English Jacobean play, written by William Rowley, Thomas Dekker and John Ford in 1621. The play—"probably the most sophisticated treatment of domestic tragedy in the whole of Elizabethan-Jacobean drama"—is based on events that supposedly took place in the parish of Edmonton, then outside London, earlier that year. The play depicts Elizabeth Sawyer, an old woman shunned by her neighbours, who gets revenge by selling her soul to the Devil, who appears to her in the shape of a black dog called Tom. In addition, there are two subplots. One depicts a bigamist who murders his second wife at the devil's prompting, and the other depicts a clownish yokel who befriends the devil-dog.

La strega di Edmonton (The Witch of Edmonton) è una tragicommedia del 1621 di William Rowley, Thomas Dekker e John Ford. L'opera è ispirata a fatti realmente accaduti pochi mesi prima della messa in scena, il processo e condanna di Elizabeth Sawyer per stregoneria. Umiliata dai vicini, la Sawyer si sarebbe vendicata vendendo la propria anima al diavolo sotto forma di un cane parlante di nome Tom; i due sub-plot si occupano di un bigamo che uccide la seconda moglie perché tentato dal diavolo e uno sciocco campagnolo che fa amicizia con il cane demoniaco.
