Now if she could just get the others on board with saving the world-or at least their little corner of it.

Book Synopsis Being Bewitched by : Kirsten C. Uszkalo
Download or read book Being Bewitched written by Kirsten C. Uszkalo and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1622, thirteen-year-old Elizabeth Jennings fell strangely ill. After doctors’ treatments proved useless, her family began to suspect the child had been bewitched, a suspicion that was confirmed when Elizabeth accused their neighbor Margaret Russell of witchcraft. In the events that followed, witchcraft hysteria intertwines with family rivalries, property disputes, and a web of supernatural beliefs. Starting from a manuscript account of the bewitchment, Kirsten Uszkalo sets the story of Elizabeth Jennings against both the specific circumstances of the powerful Jennings family and the broader history of witchcraft in early modern England. Fitting together the intricate pieces of this complex puzzle, Uszkalo reveals a story that encompasses the iron grip of superstition, the struggle among professionalizing medical specialties, and London’s lawless and unstoppable sprawl. In the picture that emerges, we see the young Elizabeth, pinned like a live butterfly at the dark center of a web of greed and corruption, sickness and lunacy.
Book Synopsis Binding Passions by : Guido Ruggiero
Download or read book Binding Passions written by Guido Ruggiero and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1993-06-10 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mining the rich Venetian archives, especially the unusually detailed records of Venice's own branch of the Roman Inquisition, Guido Ruggiero provides a strikingly new and provocative interpretation of the end of the Renaissance in Italy. In this boldly structured work, he develops five narrative accounts of individual encounters with the Inquisition that illustrate the double-edged metaphor of how passions were both bound by late Renaissance society and were seen in turn as binding people. In this way new perspectives are opened on magic, witchcraft, love, marriage, gender, and discipline at the level of the community and beyond. Witches, courtesans, prostitutes, women healers, nobles, Cardinals, and renegade priests and monks speak from these pages describing their lives, beliefs, hopes, fears, and lies. With an imaginative flair for storytelling and impeccable scholarship, Ruggiero exposes the rich complexity of the culture and poetics of the everyday at the end of the Renaissance and illuminates a previously unexplored chapter in Italian history.

Download or read book Out of Service written by Joseph Heywood and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-09-17 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just when longtime Michigan conservation officer Grady Service is certain that he’s seen it all, he learns once again that he hasn’t. After so many decades protecting his state’s natural resources, here he still is, undercover yet again—not in a case he's developed, but dumped into a case by the Feds (with his governor’s approval). And as time passes, he can’t figure out if what he’s buried in is truly a religious nationalist militia group set on overturning the U.S. Constitution, or one man’s cash cow, a sort of half-ass redneck Ponzi aimed solely at fattening a single bank account. The newest Woods Cop Mystery, #12 in the legendary series, is another soaring brainchild of Joseph Heywood, author of the Woods Cop and Lute Bapcat Mysteries, both of which explore a way of life lived by Michigan game wardens over many different decades, from the Bapcat mysteries of the early 1900s to Grady Service and compatriots in contemporary times.
