This book was released on 2006-01-30 with total page 1310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive compilation on witchcraft and witch hunting in the early modern era exploring significant people, places, beliefs, and events. Encyclopedia of Witchcraft: The Western Tradition is the definitive reference on the age of witch hunting (approximately 1430–1750), its origins, expansion, and ultimate decline. Incorporating a wealth of recent scholarship in four richly illustrated, alphabetically organized volumes, it offers historians and general readers alike the opportunity to explore the realities behind the legends of witchcraft and witchcraft trials. Over 170 contributors from 28 nations provide vivid, documented descriptions and analyses of witchcraft trials and locations, folklore and beliefs, magical practices and deities, influential texts, and the full range of players in this extraordinary drama—witchcraft theorists and theologians; historians and authors; judges, clergy, and rulers; the accused; and their persecutors. Concentrating on Europe and the Americas in the early modern era, the work also covers relevant topics from the ancient Near East (including the Hebrew and Christian Bibles), classical antiquity, and the European Middle Ages.

Book Synopsis Witchcraft, Madness, Society, and Religion in Early Modern Germany by : H.C. Erik Midelfort
Download or read book Witchcraft, Madness, Society, and Religion in Early Modern Germany written by H.C. Erik Midelfort and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: H.C. Erik Midelfort has carved out a reputation for innovative work on early modern German history, with a particular focus on the social history of ideas and religion. This collection pulls together some of his best work on the related subjects of witchcraft, the history of madness and psychology, demonology, exorcism, and the social history of religious change in early modern Europe. Several of the pieces reprinted here constitute reviews of recent scholarly literature on their topics, while others offer sharp departures from conventional wisdom. A critique of Michel Foucault’s view of the history of madness proved both stimulating but irritating to Foucault’s most faithful readers, so it is reprinted here along with a short retrospective comment by the author. Another focus of this collection is the social history of the Holy Roman Empire, where towns, peasants, and noble families developed different perceptions of the Protestant and Catholic Reformations and of the options the religious revolutions of the sixteenth century offered. Finally, this collection also brings together articles which show how Freudian psychoanalysis and academic sociology have filtered and interpreted the history of early modern Germany.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mythen, Macht und die Angst vor der schwarzen Magie: die Geschichte der Hexenverfolgung in Europa Der Beginn der Frühen Neuzeit war auf dem Gebiet des heutigen Deutschlands und in ganz Europa eine Zeit des Umbruchs und der Verunsicherung, in der althergebrachte Wahrheiten infrage gestellt wurden. Zugleich wuchs die Furcht der Menschen vor dem nahenden Ende der Welt und mit ihr die Angst vor Hexerei und schwarzer Magie, die viele für das wahrgenommene Unheil verantwortlich machten. In diesem Buch nehmen renommierte Historikerinnen und SPIEGEL-Autoren das gewaltsame Kapitel der Hexenprozesse und die Schicksale der Opfer neu in den Blick. Sie untersuchen, warum zahlreiche Frauen und Männer als vermeintliche Hexen oder Hexenmeister verfolgt, brutal gefoltert und grausam hingerichtet wurden. Dabei entlarven sie verbreitete Mythen über jene dunkle Epoche und zeigen, dass hinter der Verfolgung oftmals Machtinteressen, soziale Konflikte und politische Rivalitäten steckten. Mit zahlreichen Abbildungen.
Book Synopsis Orthodoxy and Reform by : Jonathan Strom
Download or read book Orthodoxy and Reform written by Jonathan Strom and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 1999 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than one hundred years after the introduction of the Reformation, the clergy in Rostock set out to reform the spiritual and moral life of the city and fashion it into a new Zion. Disappointed with the results of the Lutheran Reformation, their reform efforts were less concerned with confessional purity than with the practice of Christian piety. The resulting reform movement in Rostock became one of the most vigorous in 17th century Germany.Jonathan Strom examines the consequences of the Reformation, the clergy's social and economic status, the career path of a typical pastor, and the theological basis of the office of ministry. He recounts the practical reforms sought by the clergy in Rostock after the Thirty Years War. He further analyzes the theological proposals of the four principal reformers in Rostock, Joachim Schroder, Johannes Quistorp the Younger, Theophil Grossgebauer, and Heinrich Muller.Against many of the major trends of the confessional age in which the state assumed ever greater control over the ecclesiastical apparatus and a bureaucratization of the clergy occurred, the Rostock clergy sought to widen the scope of their authority within the city and assert their independence. They had, however, only limited success in implementing their reforms. The ideas of the Rostock reformers would decisively influence Pietist leaders such as Philipp Jakob Spener and August Hermann Francke. Their history extends our understanding of the function of the Protestant clergy in the post-Reformation era and offers a new estimation of Lutheran orthodoxy on the eve of the Pietist movement.
